I enjoyed Janet´s personal style expressed through her attire and her home. She was a gracious hostess. Although it brings sadness, I give thanks to God that she is now free to be her true self. May the good memories be a comfort to you and May God give you His peace. Carey Kendall

What a beautiful lady in so many ways! I was impressed how she would teach adult Sunday school at the Lutheran Church and then rush over to sit with her dear husband at St Andrews!! Glad to read that she has a large extended family as I am sure she was a wonderful, loving mother and friend to all!
