I am really going to miss Janie. Even though I have been away from Edmond almost 2 years, we still talked and I still thought of her as my best friend. She is still my best friend and I know that she will be waiting to give me a big hug when it is my turn to go to our Heavenly Father...and I bet Jake will be standing by her..

I was very sorry to hear of Janie's death. Janie and I were childhood friends at Lake Hiwassee and used to swim and ski together when we were kids. I remember how great she was at water skiing! I enjoyed the times I spent at Janie's house at the lake and have especially fond memories of Janie's mom. Our condolences to the family of this wonderful person. I know how your lives were blessed to have Janie as a part of it.
