She enjoyed family vacations and motor coach trips and lunches with the ladies from her high school graduating class. In her spare time at home, she enjoyed crocheting afghans as well as small crafts. She was a longtime member of Messiah Lutheran Church, she loved the Lord. She poured love and smiles into everyone she met. Janet retired from Insight Communications in 2000.
