Thank you for your prayers. Kim
Sorry to hear of this. I was lucky enough to know her and all of her family. They are a testament to her strength and her kindness, her grace and hope. Roy, Kim, Scott, Bren, Cayne, Eric, Anna: she is in a better place, and she is at peace. You did everything she asked of you, as I am sure she knew you would. Continue her work, as you have so far, of helping others. Continue to make your communities stronger and better. You are her lasting gift to the world.
Larry, thank you for the good thoughts and memories. She thought Bren was
lucky to have you for a good friend. My dad is carving something for you this
week. Kim
To the Lindell Family:
My heart was sadden today when I learned of Janet’s passing. I have fond memories of her while growing up on 957. Janet was always so kind and had that smile that just brightened your day. I will always remember those Calvary Singer days practicing in my mother’s living room all grouped around the piano and seeing her drive by the house sitting up in that big school bus. My thoughts and prayers are with you. God bless!
Thank you for the kind thoughts. Kim
So sorry for your loss. Anytime I saw your mom she always knew me even when we didn’t see each other very often. Her friendly smile as many said will be remembered and her outgoing kindness. Do remember her singing in the Calvary Singers and the joy on her face as she sang for her Savior and now she sees Him face to face. You all had such a beautiful mom inside and out. Praying for you all.
Thank you so much for the kind thoughts. Kim
So sad to know of your mom’s passing. I really enjoyed time spent with her during our lunch & shopping trips. She was a joy to be with. Know that she is surely in Heaven with a clear mind and filled with happiness.
Thank you Laura for the kind thoughts. She really
liked you a lot. Kim
I’m so sorry to read in the paper the passing of Janet I always thought she was extra special person. Plus she always made 7-layer salad for me at Thanksgiving. I was lucky to see her often through the years at school because of her driving bus. She was always kind, thoughtful and full of joy. When my Dad and Mom were sick your Mom would call my mother frequently just to check up on her. Again my deepest sympathy
Thank you Fae for the kind thoughts. Thanksgiving
will not be the same this year without her and Jim.
Know your family is in our thoughts and prayers. She was a special lady who will be missed. Peace.
Thank you Cindy and Doug for being there for all of us.
Great to have family like you. Kim
