Dear Paul & family,
I got the priviledge of getting to know and work with Janet at the Fair Western Wear many years ago. She was such a joy to me everyday at work & we developed such a great relationship as friends. We got to share our experiences of having our first children just months apart. Janet always had such a genuine appreciation for others & I'm so glad to have gotten to be one to know her. I am just sadden I didn't continue the bond we had after I moved away. The last time we spoke I had lost a friend & Janet's concern was if she were a christian (& she was). This confirms to me my sadness has limites on it because I know Janet sits with Jesus in his kingdom & I will get to see her one day. I pray for comfort & peace for you and your family at this time & that you feel the arms of God's love around you.
My heart & prayers are with you!

Janet was a 1970 classmate of mine. Time is strange...in my mind's eye she will always be that young and idealistic girl I knew. My prayer is that you - her family - will be comforted by loving memories.
