So sorry for your loss. Janet was a great person who I had the pleasure of working with many years when I worked at Datahr/Ability Beyond, and she was a great (DMR/DDS) case manager. We had worked with so many clients together for over 15 years. For so long we sat in so many team meetings, and she helped out so many of our clients. May your memories hold dear to you in your hearts, and may she rest in peace. I was very lucky to have worked with such a great lady!
