My kids volunteered at Pennybyrn under Janet. Due to covid, they were not able to volunteer lately and did not have the opportunity to see Janet before she passed. Janet was a lovely person, radiating love, and made everyone she came across feel extra special. My boys will forever remember her goodness. The Johnson Family

I only had the privilege of knowing Janet a few years, but I always admired her daily spirit. It's true she loved everyone she encountered and showed that most profoundly by sharing her love of her savior, Jesus, and declaring that to all. She is a part of my day that lives on in memory now, but I am so happy she has been welcomed to her eternal home. Barb Martin

Janet, we love and miss you greatly here at Maryfield. You were such a joyful person with the biggest smile that brightened our day here. You arrived at work smiling and we heard you coming before seeing you . The Bible was your trade mark as you listened to it on the way to work. You loved and knew your Lord Jesus in such a personal way. Precious now to the Lord is the death of His faithful one. Thanks for all the love, care, compassion you bestowed upon the Residents here and on all of us. You were our guiding light. You will always be remembered by us Janet as we Remember and Celebrate your life now in Heaven. Heartfelt thanks for touching our lives and leaving us with lasting memories. Jesus loves me this I know will always be our theme song as we Remember you. Sr Loretta πŸ™πŸ¦‹

Janet was a beautiful soul. She was the first person I met when I first came to Pennybyrn. I will never forget her beautiful smile and how she always made everyone feel loved. Janet will truly be missed! Until we meet again my friend rest on. Love always Kim Dickey

From the moment I met Janet in 1999 at Pennybyrn, I knew she was a unique and compassionate soul. She had an uncanny ability to light up any room and her laughter could be heard across the building. The residents and team members adored her. You just couldn't help but love her spirit, enthusiasm, and charisma. Her presence created a legacy that will never fade, and her absence leaves a hole in our hearts that can never be healed. I will miss you immensely Janet and love you dearly. ~ Kristie Catlin
