My younger sister Janet passed over on October 5, 2008 very suddenly and unexpectedly.

Janet was the sweetest woman - a wonderful sister, I can not remember ever having a cross word with her.

She acknowledged me for who I am, and I send her the deepest respect and honour.

May her soul be bathed in the most exquisite light imaginable…may she walk in grace and beauty, and her being sing with joy, love, and peace. I will love you forever, fair one!
