Janet was a true friend to most who knew her. She
loved spending time with her family for any occasion or
for no occasion at all. And she loved to spend her Saturdays
playing Bingo with her daughter Brenda, her granddaughter
Jamie and her friends at the Dunbar Athletic Boosters
Bingo Hall, including Gloria Richmond and Shelly Hardy, just
to name a few.
Janet was also an avid pet lover all of her life, right up to
the very end, rescuing so many four legged friends that it would
be difficult to name them all. Faithful friends that she gladly
shared her love, her life and her home throughout the years.
We lost our loving mother, grandmother and best friend, and
our lives will never be the same. She always had a beautiful smile
that could light up the world. We were so blessed to have her
for a Mother. Thank you God for giving us the best Mother in the
world. If you ever had the pleasure of knowing our mother in
any capacity at all, you would understand what a massive loss
this is to us all.
Janet was not one to impose on anyone, and would not wish
anyone to put themselves our on her account, but instead prefer
that they simply think of her from time to time, and hope that
thought would always bring a smile.
The family of Janet wishes to extend our sincere thanks to the
Staff at CAMC Memorial Emergency Staff, to the Cath lab to the
Perfusion Dept. and the Open Heart Unit for going above and beyond
with their loving care of our dear Mother.
Visitation with the family will be from 6 to 8 PM Monday April 2,

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 AM Tuesday April 3, 2018 at
