Uncle Mike,Mikie,Deb and familes, I have so many wonderful memories of Aunt Janet that I don't think I could pick just one. So many nights spent on the living room floor of the house listening to them as they played pinochle. I am so glad that Mom and I came to visit a few weeks ago, she was laughing and joking. Mom asked if she was watching any of the Olympics, her reply, "Michael lives here, is there anything else on." She will be so missed. But God wrapped his loving arms around her and took her home and she is no longer in pain. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers and I love you all so much. Candy
