Janet was a partner with her husband Dan at Bushong Restaurant Equipment. Services will be held 10:00 a.m. Friday at Baker-Hazel & Snider Funeral Home 5555 Philadelphia Dr. at N. Main St. Friends may call Thursday from 4 to 8 p.m. In lieu of flowers treat your family to a special night out, take candy to someone lonely.. .tie on a balloon or give generously to a street person, say it's from Janet, a lovely spirit who graced our lives and will continue to do so from the bright forever.

Dear Uncle Danny, I am deeply saddened by Aunt Janets' passing. I realize that one can never take for granted that a person will always be there and push things off for a future time. I wish she had met Justin, now 10, and Austin, now 8.
I hope that she knew I was always grateful to her for helping and supporting me in my search all those years ago.
My thoughts are with you Uncle Danny.
Much love to you,
Stacy Ann

So seldom in a lifetime does someone come into your life, that no matter the number of miles that separate you, it causes pause. “Happiness is a bowl full of friends”. Janet was a blessing in my life. Danny, Sissy and Darrin, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
God Bless,
"Berley"
