Please accept my condolences. May the Good Lord wrap His loving arms around all of the family and give you peace during this trying time. I remember Janis from our years in high school although I am a few years older. She and I were close and I really enjoyed her friendship. She was a lovely lady and will be greatly missed.

Car rides to dance classes, eating boudain balls, dairy queen ice cream, watching Golden Girls, homemade chocolate chip cookies, cheering us on as we danced, funny costumes, boy advice, hugs of love, laughter,laughter, and more laughter... so many ways she was like a mother to me. That's why I called her Mama J.
