    Jim, Lee Ann, Kris, and Susan, I was so shocked to hear of her passing. Too young. I have nothing but fond, wonderful memories of being around her growing up and later in life running into you somewhere and just having fun. She always made me feel special. She will be sorely missed. God bless.

    Jim, I was so saddened to hear of the loss of Janet. I had the honor of styling her hair for many years until my retirement. I will always cherish the many stories of your travels, cars, bowling and family get togethers( the table always had to be perfect). May God grant you Love, Peace and Strength to live on this earth until you meet again in Heaven. My deepest condolences, Lori Veh
