Janet's smile was one that could brighten your smile no matter what your problem was. I met her in Emmaus where she gave so much. I'd like to think I returned my smile to her.

She also had a best friend and for 50 years we shared our own stories, songs, jokes, happy times and troubles. I will never have anyone ever again who made me so happy and drove me so crazy and I don't know how to go on from here. My heart is shattered and the big hole in the middle of me may never go away.
