Judy Silvius lit a candle

“Janie and I were coworkers and more importantly she was one of my best friends for over 30 years. My heart is heavy. But I know she's not in pain. Janie was a quirky person but in a good way. I loved her like my sister. She was a very generous soul. She loved Mac. She was the happiest the last 12 years or so with her life with Mac. May you find peace and contentment. Jesus wrap your loving arms around her and welcome her home. Will never forget all the good times. See you soon. Love you. ❤️”

Gilda Gilbert wrote a sympathy message

“Janie was my friend and co-worker for over 20 years in a busy operating room. She was deeply committed to ensuring that the surgical teams had everything they needed—always on time and always with care. Her high energy and enthusiasm lifted everyone’s spirits, especially during those long, late-night cases. Throughout the hospital, Janie was known for her beautiful smile and warm, friendly demeanor. Mac was her heart's delight and they are together again making music.”
