I am so very sorry to hear about Aunt Janey. I know she is at peace now and she is with uncle Buddy keeping him in line. I will always have sweet memories of her.

We are so sorry to hear of Janey’s passing. She and Buddy were good friends and we had met them through our church when they first moved here with their young family. We had lost touch with each other but thought of them often. They were a big part of our lives for many years. She was a beautiful and thoughtful lady. The family is in our prayers.
