What a full, rich life Janet lived. She is a great example to us all to view life as a wonderful adventure and to embrace each new phase of life with courage and enthusiasm. May her positive influence continue through her family and friends for generations to come.

I met her at Jessica's wedding brunch. Such a gracious and poised lady! Her history is amazing to read.

I was also truly blessed to have Janet and Bill as my beloved aunt and uncle. I will always have fond memories of my time spent at Wauna Lake. Janet was a most gracious hostess, especially when she found out I could cook! She was a truly a remarkable women and I will miss her dearly.

Having been blessed with Janet and Bill as my aunt and uncle, it would be easy to write a a comment most lengthy and complimentary, and still not do them justice. I won't do that. I will just note that every minute spent with them was a joy, that every opportunity to learn from them affected my life, and that they occupied a unique place in the hearts of all who knew them.

Spring poppies for you!!!!!

Janet was a friend, mentor and amazingly lovely woman. Our friendship grew over time. We spent many hours talking over pots of split pea soup, there was a great deal of laughter and profound sharing. I miss you every moment and my heart goes out to the
entire family. The Wyse family are a rare breed of love!!!!!!

While I knew Bill professionally for many years, in the early 1990s, Alice and I had the pleasure of traveling to Gorbechev's USSR as it was experiencing Peristroika. We met many Russian and Ukrainian lawyers and tried to impart to them the basic concepts of Western justice. Bill and Janet were among the best and the brightest in our group and we have many fond memories of our wonderful time together.
