Not sure what to say?

I don’t remember the exact year that we met. But, I have so many years of fond memories celebrating one thing or another at Blythewood with Janet and the others in what I like to call the “Blythewood family”. So many laughs with that funny lady. I will miss her. To all of her family, my sincerely condolences and prayers. ✝

This is heartbreaking, and we are so sorry. All of your beautiful family will continue to be in our prayers.

RIP Janet.

To Jason and the entire Mitchell family, I am deeply sorry for your loss of Janet. I am praying for you all. ❤

RIP to one of my sweet, sweet cousins that I love sooo much. Have fun up there with our other "Heavenly Angels"!!! Love you sweet Jan!

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Thinking of all the times we exchanged summer visits in Nederland and Amite. Those were special memories I always looked forward to with Roy, Erline and the Mitchell family. I’ll never forget you Janet and my prayers are with your family at this difficult time.

So very sorry for your loss Jason and the entire Mitchell family. Prayers to all

God bless her eternal soal..Andy Anderson

Janet lived life to the fullest and had enduring compassion for others. She had a beautiful soul which was evident to all who knew her, bringing warmth, laughter, and kindness into every room she entered.

Throughout her life, Janet embraced every moment fully. Whether traveling to new places, cheering on her favorite team, or gathering for a family meal, she infused everything she did with passion and heart.  She was a treasured sister and favorite aunt to all her nieces and nephews.

She is survived by siblings, Deborah O’Shee (Jerry), Linda Tycer (Dwain), Alan Mitchell (Kelley), Ronny Mitchell (Louise), Jason Mitchell, and numerous nieces and nephews.
