I am sorry for the loss of this beautiful lady! When I would visit my Mom, I would see Janet and say, "Jackson"! She would give me a thumbs up and the most beautiful smile. Her smile lit up the room and my heart.
My Mom also gave her "special" attention. Recently, my Mom saw that Janet looked very sad. My Mom told her that she knew she missed her family. My Mom kissed Janet on the forehead and it cheered her up.

Our deepest condolences to you all. We will miss her smiling face at LifeCare. Even though she was unable to speak, she sure made herself clear with her expressions in regards to what you would say. She loved you all and when I would show her pictures of her family she would light right up. Her smiling face at the window "the keeper of the place". Yes, will miss her for sure.
May she rest in peace.
Love you all,
Sim and Jim xo
