JANET ROTTER Obituary

ROTTER--Janet Clott March 6, 1943 - January 27, 2020. Stephen and Zoe have lost their most beautiful girl, wife and mother. Her spirit and courage in a 30 year battle against cancer never diminished her accomplishments, or wit and grace. She was a former Arts editor at Glamour Magazine, novelist and critic. Janet was a miracle girl who found a lost boy and gave them a special life. Services Thursday, January 30th 12 Noon at The Riverside, 76th St. and Amsterdam Ave. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, 1275 York Ave., NYC 10065.

I was thinking of Janet today and i was going to look her up. I graduated with Janet from Lincoln High in Jersey City, Have fond memories! By the way, I saw her on the bus in Manhattan many years ago. She was on her way to work at Glamour Magazine. She-was happy to see me too! You and the family have my sympathy and prayers,
Love, Doris Burroughs

Dear Steve and Family: Very sorry to see in the Times that Janet had passed away. Iris and I were glad to get to know you around the time of the Lincoln HS 50th, but regret losing touch after moving to S. Carolina. She was always cheerful and direct with us and I still remember happily working with her on our yearbook 60 years ago. Stay strong.
