Janice was a long-time pen pal; she loved our daughter even when she couldn't have children at the time. Plan to see you in heaven. We love you and we will miss you.

Doug and Randy, I’m so sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. We enjoyed many long walks early in the morning, walking to Fairview and doing laps. She was such a sweetie! Your great memories of her will help you through this rough time.
