  6. I will always love you my friend. You are and will always have an important place in my heart. I’m so very lucky to have known you and will miss you.

    I can still remember hearing the song “wipe out” start. Watching you dance still to this day makes me tired. Love doesn’t quite define you. Rest now Janet.

    My dear cousin Janet,
    Every time someone refers to you the very first thing they say is how sweet of a person you are. From the time when we were small children you were always so sweet and kind. I remember you always that way and know heaven will be a sweeter place just because you are there.
