Dear Family of Janet~
I too was sorry to hear about Janet's passing. I remember her so well. She lived down the street at the corner. She would always let us kids play in her yard. I remember her little white house, eating candy in her fancy living room, and her fluffy decorated kitchen. Sometimes we would visit and she would have been cooking and the house smelled good. I remember her little dogs,her gruff husband who always used to sit on the porch smoking cigaretts, her hair always done up in a twist, her mischievous smile and her friendship with my grandmother Harriet Dannley . They loved to go out together. I remember them always talking about the DAR and the Garden Club. Yes I was sad to hear that she is gone. I'll be thinking about her.
