Condolences

Condolence From: David and Mickie Angas
Condolence: Remembering Janet. Always a smile and a warm caring greeting Janet was there at every community meeting With a camera in hand and a well trained eye She would line up the stars under her sky Snapping away to capture us all Collecting memories while having a ball Gifted in life with everything she did There was nothing about herself she ever hid Her laughter, generosity and smile Made every greeting more than worthwhile Family, friends, water skiing and sailing Real estate, photography, art -there was simply no failing Those of us who knew Janet, we are all blessed With the legacy of love, laughter and friendship she left So the next time you see someone you know Ask them to share their memories when you say hello Because I am sure that they will be as enriching as yours And you will both remember just how much she was adored

Condolence: Dear Family We where so saddened when Bob came downstairs to tell us of the passing of your Mother. We where so fortunate to have had a great one hour phone call with your Mother on Fri. As always at the end of the call she said I love you two sooo much. Thats Janet and what she was always about / family first and friends. Oh so many memories baked beans, parties in the tree house,Elicotville with the Byrnes, lovely suppers at Connies the perfume counter at Eatons where I am sure she got the passion to sell and her love of the family cottage. She loved you all so dearly always telling us how well her grandchildren where doing. We all where so lucky to have your Mother in our lives Take care of each other Love the Mitchells in Noth Van.

Condolence From: Clayton Shold
Condolence: I met Janet a few years ago through the Canadian Club of Halton where she took photos and wrote articles on the evening's speaker. I would post her photos on the CCH website and upload her post. We started to run into each other at various events around Oakville and I'd say "we have to stop meeting like this!" We'd laugh. Janet was a giver, a gifted photographer, a good soul who was very engaged in her community. My condolences to the family. Know that Janet will be missed by many.
