“I would like the family to know how much we appreciated Ms. Janet. My son worked at St. John’s Reformed Church for almost three years. In one of our first visits to see our son, Ms. Janet so fondly took us around showing us different places and then proceeded to take us out to eat. She was a kind loving person and so welcoming to my son. Praying peace and comfort to her family 🙏🏽❤️”

“I have many fond memories of Janet and her musical abilities. She will be missed by all who knew her. She spent many hours playing piano for the church and special events. I know her music will never be replaced and was enjoyed by all who knew her. Joan Eckler”

“We are so sad to learn of your mom’s passing. No one has to tell you what an incredible person she was. She lived a life worthy of notice for all her kindness and thoughtfulness. Your mom touched so many lives. Our prayers for peace at this sad time go out to each of you. Charles and Diane Wagar”
