We will really miss Janelle’s fiesty personality! Having cared for her and Fred over the years was an honor and a privilege. Happy she had a peaceful transition to her heavenly home. All of us at Home ‘Carefree’ know that she is now truly ‘carefree’ and breathing easy; no longer suffering.
May God Bless your family with strength and prayers at this very difficult time. Janelle was married to my uncle Lewis Miller and I remember her when I was little. She was a beautiful lady. My mother Virginia Yates also sends thoughts and prayers for the family.
