A wonderful lady, Janet was astute, feisty and fun to be around. Our paths crossed at Green Thumb/Experience Works where she worked for me and several others. She helped many of her peers gain new job skills so they could have a better life. Thank you Janet! You had a life well lived. Thanks for your friendship and the memories. You will be missed! Hugs and kisses from your colleague and friend! - Kent Kahn.
