    Janie, I know you’re rejoicing in heaven with Laurie…oh what a reunion that must be! You always had a smile on your face and made sure you told everyone you loved them. I’ll never forget the time you came to CA. to visit and you walked into our screen door on our slider….you laughed so hard, and gave us all a chuckle. You will be missed, but one day we will see you again in heaven. Prayers to all those with heavy hearts.
    XOXO
