My heart felt sympathy to all of Janie's family and many friends. Janie and I were classmates at Parkin High School. She was indeed a beautiful Lady inside and out and had a genuine radiant personal warmth that endeared her to all that knew her. I am sure that she and Joby are once again in each others loving arms for eternity.
We love you
