Janie’s house was definitely open to others and I remember spending many a day there when I was younger. Janie was a great friend to many. I remember her hamburger soup which I would always ask her to make me and of course she always did. I remember her and her cats as she always had a few. She definitely had a way with her cats. Janie had a huge heart and will be remembered by me and my family with a smile and happy memories. I can picture her smile as I sit her writing this. Rest in peace Janie and be with the many loved ones who were awaiting your arrival. My thoughts are with all the family. Gordon and Jason please reach out if you need anything.
