Janet Montague Obituary
She was a long time resident of Eckerman and Cedarville. She will be remembered by many for her letters of encouragement, the homemade bread and meals she took to the lonely and discouraged, and her prayers for so many.
Janet is survived by her children and their families: Heidi Sloan, husband Shawn, and grandchildren Chris and Michelle of Virginia, Randy Montague of Florida, Jenny Kruger, husband Kevin, and grandchildren Gabriel, Ambria, and Truett of Petoskey, Michigan.
Janet was preceded in death by her husband, Chuck Montague.
A memorial service will be held in Strongs in July. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be left to Strongs Community Bible Church missions fund.

Aunt Janet, Despite all your humility, and all your generosity & encouragement to me in these past several years since we've re-connected ... with your honesty & breadth & gracious humor, you know as well as I do that with a short tribute, I'm incapable of doing justice to your nature, as I couldn't for Uncle Chuck either. The essence of you two is just what this world needed through the decades of your lives, and what we'll still need in the years ahead. I love you, and I'll miss you, and I imagine I'm joined by just about anyone whose lives you touched. Your nephew and friend, Bruce P.

Your mom was such a faithful servant of Jesus. She's left a beautiful legacy in her children and grandchildren.
Aunt Janet will be missed so much at our family reunions. I felt very honored to talk with her just days before her passing. Keeping with her best trait, she asked how I was doing, Bob and the kids. Always thinking of others. Making an extra effort to speak even though it was difficult for her to even breathe. I loved her. So glad we went to the memorial yesterday. A joyful, hope-filled tribute.
Happy that she is with Uncle Chuck and the rest of her family in heaven! Sad that those she loved will have a void in their life here on earth.
Love, Priscilla Graham
