You will be missed by all who knew you
As one of her niece Michele’s older friends, I have so many memories of Auntie Janet (although she’s in no way related to me, that is how I will always know her). I remember hanging out at Flo’s house, going camping every May long in Fisher Branch, riding in the back of the car singing Blue Rodeo and Nitty Gritty Dirt Band at the top of our lungs. She was also the first one to call me “Blonde Friend”, and that is how I was known to the family from then on. Janet was always so full of life and laughs, and she will be missed.
