later moved to Dallas where she met and married Marvin Thurmond. They raised one
daughter, Jackie.
Janie was passionate about sewing, cooking, and The Texas Rangers. She loved her family,
her friends, and her church. She loved her grandsons and was their biggest cheerleader in all
that they did. Janie was a proud American and a proud Catholic. The ladies of the Prayers
and Squares Quilt Ministry at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton were her closest friends.
Janie leaves behind a legacy of quilts that will provide warmth and comfort to her family for
generations to come. She will be remembered for her Thanksgiving dressing, her kolaches, and

greatly missed.
