Janet always made people around her feel special, and helped me get through some struggles as a teenager. Her non-judgmental, trustworthy, virtuous, incorruptible, loyal, honorable ear to lend to everyone at any time was salt of the earth. A true angel who made the world a better place, especially with her hugs! I will forever be grateful and she will always be missed, as she is carried in my heart. c’est la vie
