Janet and I have been friends since 8th grade. I wish I could be with you today in celebrating her life. Janet loved her family so very much. My sweetest condolences to you Mark, Stuart, Philip  and Robin.  And also to her siblings Bobbie, JoAnn and John and their children. Janet loved all of you so very much. I know you miss her terribly. I miss her too. With much love, Karen ❤️

Janet was like a second Mom to me. She and Mark were always there for me and my family. If ever I needed to borrow something or needed help I knew who to call. 

Janet never forgot my daughter's birthday and always gave the most heartfelt gifts. We bonded when her kids were babies and we would sit in the front yard on a blanket playing with little Robin and watching the boys run around. I saw her babies grow up and she got to see to mine grow up. 

We both love our animals and rescued many in our neighborhood. She always helped me feed the strays. We even fed the skunk and possum haha.

I will never forget her and I will treasure my time with her all these years. It's unbelievable how time flies. Tell your Mom, Dad, and family how much you love them every day. Tomorrow is not promised. I will miss her terribly!

Aunt Janet was an amazing aunt to my sister, cousins, and myself. She was everything you would want in a family member; she was kind-hearted and generous and often showed her love through gift-giving!

Aunt Janet was always ready for a laugh whether she was the one telling the joke or listening to others. She brought so much joy to our family gatherings and her presence will be greatly missed.

Janet was my older sister by a few years. She had incredible patience and self control when dealing with me. I like to think I helped prepare her for the 2 roles she cherished most-mother and Nana. She was a natural at both! Her family was her greatest source of joy. Janet didn’t let her aches, pains and physical limitations prevent her from joining in family trips. She was tough as nails! I’ll miss her self deprecating humor, her enthusiasm for any new HEB product, her funny animal videos and just talking on the phone with her for hours when we should both be asleep! Rest in peace my sweet sister.
