Janet was incredibly generous, and would happily give the shirt off her back to anyone in need. She loved her family with everything she had, and could turn a penny into a dollar to make sure they were cared for.

Per Janet's wishes, cremation has taken place, and a celebration of her life will be planned for the spring. To share a memory of Janet or leave a special message for her family, visit the guest book below.
