Jack,
I checked the weather today and saw you may get a nor'easter. I thought about Janet and tried to find her on Facebook. I am so sorry to hear this. I see her cousin listed in a memory and remember them not agreeing. I also see that at that time, Emmett was still living. My heart and prayers go out to you. I remember you guys. Stay well and God bless you.

To John, family, and friends I am so sorry for your loss. I never met Janet personally but judging by her wonderful memorial messages and her love for animals its clear she had a heart of gold and was well loved. Rest In Peace, Janet.

Janet. What can I say? She was truly a special person. A very special friend. I am grateful that she did not suffer as some of my other friends have. As much as I will miss her, and I will, my heart goes out to Jack
and Emmett who I know will miss her even more than I. Love you Janet! Rest in peace.

Janet's dedication to the animals in her care was always admirable.
Godspeed! I'm sure she's happily reunited with those 2 and 4 legged friends and family who have gone before her.

I miss you already Janet. It was always special when you would come over for coffee and share about your experiences with Linda and I. So many times the doorbell would ring and there you were with a pile of food you made too much of and always it was first class. I loved going to Chan's with you and Jack and had many memorable moments that we still laugh about to this day. so many times you invited Linda and I over for drinks and laughs, or dinners. and just last month you bailed me out of a dead battery situation with your battery jump pack when I was stuck at Lin's dentist. so many laughs and stories. I am a better person having had you and Jack in my life. Rest in Peace dear Janet.
