I only knew Janet for such a short time but what I do know was her love for her family was so strong. Janet was brave beyond belief enduring what only I can imagine, remaining strong and positive right to the end for her family. For my part I can only assure you that your memory will never die as I help Hillary and Jennifer in the years to come having endured what the girls are going through with my own Mum some 23 years ago at a similar age. It was a priviledge to have known you and both Paul and Brian have been lucky Men in your life. God give them strength to carry on your plans for Hillary and Jennifer and lets celebrate all that you have done and all that will manifest itself in the girls as they grow older. With fond memories and condolences to you Brian as you deal with the emptiness. Caroline

It is with extreme sadness that I am sending condolences for someone who's life was taken far too soon. Janet had such a zest for life and had one of the best senses of humour of anyone I know. That's why she and I used to joke that we shared a half brain. We were so much alike, even our birthdays were a week apart. I will always cherish the laughter I shared with my half brain over the years, and our deep close friendship, which I share with no other. At least I am fortunate to have had Janet in my life for as long as I did. For that I will always be grateful. She loved her family so very much, and we all loved her back which was so easy. She always put others before herself, and was so supportive of everyone, not ever complaining about the serious health problems she was enduring (always with a smile and laughter). I have never met a stronger person than Janet. I will miss her dog advice, recipe advice, and our regular chats about trivial things. More than anything, I will miss her presence and her friendship. For all of us, she will hold a huge place in our hearts for the rest of our days....I only hope that I can be as strong and as thoughtful to others as Janet was, in her own time of need. I believe that our paths will cross again, maybe not on this earth...but my half brain will always remain close to my heart. I send my love to Brian, Jennifer, Hillary, her Mom, Paul, John and Debbie. My condolences to all of her family and friends who also share this enormous loss. Sincerely, Karen Scott
