My Nannie has always meant the world to me. If there was a ever a perfect woman placed on this earth it was Janet Dowdle. You could NOT even coax her into saying a negative word about anyone for any reason, she could see some kind of good in any person. She hugged unconditionally, sometimes even complete strangers. Actually there was no such thing as a stranger to her because within a minute of meeting her everyone loved her. I don't say these things because she was my grandmother, my Nannie, but because it is the absolute truth. I love her with all my heart and always will and I am better person simply because of her. Godspeed Nannie.

Ms Janet is what I called her. It was such a pleasure carrying for her she was a very sweet lady. Singing to her before bedtime made her happy. I'm singing one for you now. Thanking the heavenly Father he brought you into my life. Rest in Peace my sweet lady

Your mother was such a sweet person with such a beautiful spirit. I never saw her without that beautiful smile on her face. I know you will miss her so much. I'm praying that God will wrap His loving arms around you and give you much needed comfort. God bless you!

Janet was like a grandma to me. We had such a special relationship . We joked, laughed, cried, prayed and just spent time with each other. It was such a privilege to be apart of her life and her family if only for a short while. She will always have a special place in my heart .
