To Janet's parents, brothers, husband, sons, and family members,
I am so sorry for your loss;
I wish I could make it all better for you. Janet and I went to ABC together for 4 years. She and I met on the very first day, at the first lineup for supper Sept. 7, 1987. Janet was always positive, optimistic, faithful, and kind- I only knew her for awhile. She would have been the best sister and daughter and Mom and best friend for Tony. God bless you all forever and ever, now and until we are all together in Heaven,
Bruce MacLean

Dear Tony, Greg, Andrew, Robert, Nadine, Jamie, Lisa, Brittany, Daniel, Murray, Cindy, Monica, and Jonathan,
Your families were such a big part of our lives when we lived in Douglas and we care so much about all of you! It seems like just yesterday when we had so much fun teaching Greg in our 2s & 3s Sunday School class.
You have all been in our thoughts and prayers over the past year and you will continue to be through this very difficult time. Jason & I were so incredibly sad to hear that Janet had passed away, and we are very sorry that we can't be there today to show you our love and support. We are so thankful that God has promised to be with you, and we pray that he will give you the peace, comfort and strength that you need.
We have such great memories of Janet including when she was the pianist at our wedding. At the wedding rehearsal our soloist showed up with laryngitis and was unable to sing, so Janet willingly offered to step in and take her place. She was such a big part in helping our wedding to be as memorable and special as we had dreamed of and we appreciated her help so much.
It’s so reassuring to know that Janet’s no longer in pain, and that we will see her again in heaven. Until that day, she will be greatly missed. She was such a kind, thoughtful, gentle, compassionate, loving, giving, amazing and talented lady and we are so grateful that we knew her.
Love, Vicki & Jason Bettle

Janet was a great friend during our senior year at ABC. We spent many hours talking and giggling in her dorm room, and I remember well the excitement with which she planned her upcoming wedding and the way her face lit up when she was expecting a visit from Tony. The years have not dimmed the memory of her spirit, humour and energy, nor the kindness she showed to the new kid. Prayers and sincere condolences.

Dear Parks & Grasse families, We are deeply saddened by your great loss in Janet. She was a beautiful person,inside and out, with many talents that she used for God's glory. We shall miss her beautiful smile, expressive eyes, her sense of humor and her presence with us. Our hearts ache for each one in her family as we know how precious she was to each of you. Life can seem very unfair at times, when we look at it from an earthly viewpoint, but Janet demonstrated great courage & fortitude because she had an intimate, personal relationship with her Lord which gave her a strong heavenly perspective. May you find comfort knowing she is reaping her rewards in heaven now and we shall see her again there. Love & peace to all of the family.

You are all in my thoughts.
Janet was a huge part of my life for many years and I am honored to have loved her.
This poem made me smile and think of Janet.
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave as I am here.

To Janet’s family:
I do not have the words to express my deep sorrow for your loss. Janet was an incredible person. She was such an encouragement and inspiration to me in my music studies. She was so gentle, kind, and gave so much of herself to others. Her courage, sense of humour, and unshakable faith during her battle with cancer was an example to us all. I will miss her smile, sweet personality and beautiful music, but will cling to the promise that we will meet again. May the God of all peace and comfort surround you with His love. Praying for you.
“The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” (Psalm 18:2)

I am so sorry to hear the news. I worked with Janet in our youth... singing, playing, even touring together for ABC. She's someone I remember fondly despite not seeing her for... well... probably close to 20 years. But as I read the regular posts she made to Facebook I always thought "she's the same strong, caring woman she was back then." Probably even more so. With two kids of my own, I send special thoughts to her sons; it touches close to home. I pray for your peace and grief.
