Edward and Elsa (neé Rinne) Olt. Janet graduated from

Stivers High School, attended Wright State University, and

Miami University - Middletown. She worked for Michigan Bell Telephone Company for 4 years, then 30 years as a supervisor for Ohio Bell

Telephone Company (both now known as AT&T). Janet retired from AT&T and worked as a Travel Agent for another 18 years! After a second retirement, in her spare time, while

For 17 years, Janet belonged to the Ohio State Chapter of the P.E.O. Sisterhood - a women's-only Philanthropic Educational Organization that celebrates the advancement of women, providing education through scholarships, grants, awards, loans and the stewardship of Cottey College. The P.E.O. Sisterhood members are motivated to achieve their highest aspirations, and helping other women reach for the stars through state and international educational projects. (More information can be found by visiting: http://www.ohiopeo.org/ ) Janet also loved to travel. So many summers were spent enjoying Douglas Lake, MI. She enjoyed classical music, particularly

attending live events by Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra and Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, as well as attending musicals and plays. In her later years, she would spend hours and hours working on cross-word puzzles and playing computer
