I am so sorry to hear of "Auntie" Janet's passing. She was truly a member of our family and I will always remember what great friends her and my mom were and how we so enjoyed having her at our house for many dinners. She was such a smart, classy lady and spoke so lovingly of all of you. May her special memories be an everlasting gift to you all.
