I was so sorry to hear of Janet's passing. I really enjoyed meeting her through Byron's Field of Flags. She was so sweet and thoughtful. R.I.P. Janet, I was lucky to have met you.

Our sympathies to Thurman and the rest of Janet’s family. We will miss her, too. Janet shared her stories and gifts generously. She made the best banana bread and delighted in giving it away. She developed friendships throughout the community and was known as the “Grandma of the School.” Janet amazed us by fulfilling her dream of taking a cruise to Alaska. In spite of her struggles, Janet inspired others to live their dreams, too.
