I didn't know Janelle as an adult. She was a neighbor in Oakland and best friends with Penny Taylor, another neighbor and my best friend. The three of us would get together at Janelle's and play Barbies. We were in Girl Scouts together and went to the same schools all through high school. When she was a young girl, I thought she was fun and pretty and I had a crush on her brothers. Matt even played Barbies with us on her front porch! I lost touch with Janelle after we got older, but she reconnected with Penny a few years ago and through Penny I heard how she was doing and what she had experienced in life. I was sorry to hear she passed so young. Maybe she just burned brighter and faster than others. I hope she had a full life and good friends and a loving family. She deserved it. May she rest in peace.

Dear Nellie:
This is so final my friend, the reality that we won't be together to live out our final days disappoints me. If I remove all the selfish thoughts I can say that I am happy that God had a better plan for you. The fact that you won't suffer another day pleases me. I can say without reservation I am happy you have gone to be with our heavenly Father. What's left to say is thank you for sharing in my life and for being my best friend. It continues to be really hard to carry on without your good humor, your home remedies that I liked so well, and your infectious laughter. Your children had a beautiful memorial service for you, and right next to Camden too. I hope that your relatives and friends were all there. It is a testament to how well your children were raised by their Mother. You would have been very proud. Janelle, please know above all things that you brought sunshine to each one of my days. I love you my friend.  Julie Glasser
