    I am sorry to hear of Mrs. Janet’s passing. I knew her when she was a member of the Learning in Retirement at Co-Lin. She was always a great, fun participant and we have missed her in recent years. My condolences to the family.

    Janet was smart, funny, down to earth, warm, and feisty. Her spirit lives on through her amazing children, grands, and great-grands. Much love from the family of her first cousin, Kenneth. Kim, Robyn, Susan and Gerrie. I hope she and daddy are hanging out together like old times. I will miss her laugh. And that ACCENT!
