Janet, as the mother of my cherished Niece, Jaclyn. Janet was someone I learn to respect through the years. We were happy to know each, sharing the life we lived, with Jaclyn being our common bond. Janet was resourceful and highly intelligent. She navigated life’s challenges creatively. Her life made a difference with those she touched.
Thank you, Janet for sharing your light and love.
I had the pleasure of working with Janet, when I moved to Orlando. She was a sweet and humble woman and I was lucky to have her as my mentor and friend. RIP Janet
Janet was my paralegal for years. She was very smart very loyal and lots of fun. I’m still practicing a little bit and miss her every day. Larry
