Janet was one of my most valued co-workers for several projects. She was the go-to person whenever I needed to discuss a tricky problem.

Rick, I am so saddened to hear of Janet's death. She was such a cheerful presence in our neighborhood. She had the ability to laugh at herself and was very modest about her remarkable talents. We will so miss her presence and are thinking of you. May you have many beautiful memories of your life with her. Warmest regards, Suki and Fil Agusti

Rick... so very sorry to hear that Janet had passed. It was my privilege to know her and work with her on programs such as BC2A, OASIS, and Jaguar. Shelley and I still have fond memories of the week we spent in Hawaii for OASIS. Janet was the very essence of a good manager: perceptive, conscientious, and supportive of her team. She was also a superb editor, and I took advantage of that on many occasions. More than that, she was a good friend and fun to be around. My condolences to you, the girls, and the rest of the family. Janet will be missed by everyone who knew her.

So very saddened... Janet was always such a wonderful mentor and friend to me for so many years at Draper. My fondest memories go back to the Space Shuttle days and working together on control systems.

I, among many others, spent a lot of time in the trenches with Janet at Draper helping to write and win those proposals, on business travel, and doing the work. She was always very conscientious about her work, and always loyal to those on her team. It was a pleasure working with her and I'm very sorry and saddened to hear of this news. My condolences to Rick and her family.

I´m so sorry to hear that Janet has passed. She was always friendly and engaging no matter how busy at work. I´m in Santa Fe now and will send off a prayer to her at the plaza! My heart felt sympathy to Rick and her family.

I remember very well the first time I met Janet at Drape Lab. I was working in the Sim Lab in the Boeing 707 cockpit and Dr John Deyst brought Janet around on her first day at work, I believe, to show her the lab and introduce her to everyone. It was just a delight to meet her and then be colleagues for a very long time. I'm so sorry to hear about her passing away.
My deepest condolences to Rick and all of Janet's loved ones.
