Janet was a woman of strong faith, her church family was important to her, as was sharing her faith with others. She loved God’s gifts to us, her gardens, monarch butterflies, fishing, hummingbirds, all of God’s creations. Her family was everything, nothing was better than to hear the words, “Grama” or “Gigi”! She loved cooking homemade meals for her family anything from homemade breads, noodles, sugar cookies, to strawberry freezer jam. Every major sports occasion, choir or band concert was celebrated with an ice cream.

Her family includes her children, Norman Helmuth (Wanette), Cheryl Johnston, Brenda Oskam and Angie Robinson; 11 grandchildren, 8 great grandchildren and sister-in-law, Linda Scriven.
