Janet was so full of life. She was a great friend with good advice, a good listener. Full of kindness to invite us to her summer cottage. These memories will not be forgotten. Spending time on the lake and all the dance parties. What fun we always had. She will be missed dearly. The kindness she also extended to Katharyn to help her finish her nursing degree by allowing her to stay at her home in Toronto.
Her sport will live on in our hearts and will be missed dearly,
