So very very sorry for the loss of sweet Janet. As one of her many nurses at Wyngate, I had the great pleasure of caring for her. Just last week she gave me a big smile as I gave her medicine. I will truly remember that smile and her loving heart forever!!

I am so sorry about the loss of your mother, Janet. She was a lovely lady. She and my mother, Marlene, were friends from Zion and also garden club! Many wonderful memories from that church! My father passed this February and I still miss him every day. Please accept my sincere condolences at this difficult time. Sincerely, Pam Rhueff Peterson

I have fond memories of being around Janet. Her son Mike and my daughter Lori were in ICHS band and were friends. She was fun to be around. Because of the pandemic, I did not feel safe in coming to pay my respects. Please know that I am thinking of all of you. She left behind many people that loved her and were friends with her.

I was saddened to hear of Mrs. Davis's passing. I have a lot of good memories with the Davis family, ranging from cookouts at their house, to band, to the trip to Clemson with Mike and his parents. Mrs. Davis will be missed! I'm very sorry that I wasn't able to make it over to the funeral home to see you all. You have my most sincere condolences, and the whole family is in my prayers.
