My sincere condolences to the Sisney Family. I will keep you in my prayers. Yvonne Hudson, Ross, Williams and the Wren Family

This one is a hard hit! Our hearts simply were not ready for this, but God has the final say. We had talked of seeing each other in Sept to celebrate our 50th high school class reunion. So many memories flood my mind now of our wonderful friendship of over 55 years: The cheerleader, the sister, the friend, the woman of God..... has transitioned on to glory. She is with our Lord and Savior which was her ultimate goal. Thank you Lord for allowing me to share such an endearing friendship with this amazing woman. My sincerest condolences to her entire family and friends. Mary (Wilson) Brown

My sincere condolences and prayers for peace that surpasses all understanding. I'm still in shock but I know God has her in his hands. From the first time we met I felt she was one of my sisters. Regardless of how long between our visits sisterly love was always present and will continue to be in the hearts of all whose paths encountered Janet. God is Love and Janet always shined of God's Love..❤️

Sending virtual hugs to the Family.Hold on to God's unchanging hand. Love Always, Joyce Horton
