Obituary For Ms. Janet "Duck" Washington

With a humbled heart, we pause to celebrate the life of Ms. Janet Washington, 73.

A native of the Roadside Community of Yemassee, South Carolina; Ms. Washington was affectionately known as “Duck” and was the matriarch of her family. A mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend; the essence of her memories will forever be cherished by all who celebrate her life.
