Dear Sharon, Robyn and Jack: My thoughts are with you during this time. How I wish we were closer! Janet was one of the most precious woman I have ever know. Please know I am thinking of you all. There are so many thoughts and memories running through my mind right now. What a wonderful mother, wife and neighbor she was.
