"Janet was a great friend for many years! I met her at sears in 1964 when I started working with her. We had many memories plus being her room mate for a while. Always remembered each other at Christmas with a card and note. Rest in peace Janet. Love and prayers to her family."

"Janet was alway a kind and generous woman, and always asked questions(some call it nosey) I know it was out of her caring and inquisitive nature, and truly caring about what was going on in your life. Honestly, I believe she shaped many of my good attributes. I should have heeded her and moms words more often. Janet Buddy boy will miss you.."
