Last year I wound up being the youngest patient at a certain table at the Lutheran Home Rehabilitation. Janet sat next to me. Wheelchair buddies. I thought Janet didn't like me at first. She probably didn't haha. I became her "bib assistant", her chair "puller inner", her drink glass reacher and the overall bossy one at the table who made sure she got her yogurt! By the time I was discharged I left behind 4 beautiful ladies with big hearts. I was glad to leave.. but sad to leave them behind. I did visit again a couple of times but they obviously forget the patients who end up going home. Janet, you're walking again in Heaven with your Heavenly Father and your real Dad, John Kelly from UPD. HE can dance with you now. I know you're happy to be done with all of the medical (can i say crap?)... because that's what i used to say to make you laugh. I loved you lady. I wish I knew you longer. Praying for you and happy there's no more Lutheran Home for you. I'll never forget the things you told me. <3 God bless. Love, Jodi Colburn

I made many pet therapy visits at the Lutheran Home, and always enjoyed my time spent talking with Janet. She had so many interesting stories to tell. She absolutely loved my little Schipperke, "Mr. Deeds", and always had treats for him when we arrived. I'm sure he looked forward to visiting Janet's room, where he got so much attention and all of those crackers she always had for him. Janet was such a special person and will be missed by all who were fortunate enough to have known her.
