Not sure what to say?

My mother, Anna Norman Giske, became a friend of Janet's at Oregon State University. When I was born, the only girl in our family, mom named me Janet, after her dear friend. I remember meeting her when I was little in Portland. When we moved to Seattle when I was five, a lovely ivory bedspread created by Janet on her loom with our shared name woven in beautiful blue threads at the the top arrived and it covered my bed throughout my childhood. My mom kept it in her cedar chest for the next 50...

My condolences to her family. I met Janet when I moved into The Kipling in 2000. We had both lost our husbands and we had both moved to Victoria from lake shore homes in the interior. She was a great comfort to me and a wonderful inspiration. I will miss her.

My condolences-A good friend and neigbour in Ft. St. James for many years.A very remarkable individual.
