Janice was a wonderful part of my childhood memories. Many haircuts and fun summers at the Amblers with the Blagg's and the Stanley's. I'll never forget her laughter and the fun times around your kitchen table.

Brenda, I am so sorry to hear of your loss and may you find comfort in the days to come. I did not personally know Janice, but I do know you are a warm and caring person filled with love and laughter which can only come from a wonderful mother who loves life and her husband and children. I know this because I remember all of these qualities you have from high school so long ago. May God keep you safe until you can be together again. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers that you are given strength in this time of sorrow.
