As an employee with KCPL… my prayers and deepest sympathies go out to the family. I was so very fond of Janet, she was always so very nice and a kind woman to have known.
She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
I worked with Janet at the library. She was always kind and helpful. May you cherish your wonderful
