Dear Janet you are truly a blessing to us all, I cannot believe I am not going to be able to see your smiling face, hear your voice, or give you a big hug hello but I am sure Jean has taken care of that for me. With much love, Teresa
I am so sorry for your loss. Losing a parent is life and world altering,…so sad. Please take care! Bev
I am so sorry to hear the news about Janet. She was a great person and will surely be missed. I want to send my condolences to the Chino family. Janet was like a second mom to me when we were growing up, I have such good memories of those days. I know for sure she has her wings already and is trying to read hands while in heaven. God bless the Chino family through this difficult time. Love the Giglio’s
I have not seen this poem in a decade. I thought about Mrs. Chino, and wished I had it to send, instead of a sympathy card. Tina moved my office around. I open a tiny drawer, and found it. I thought of you, and want to share it. La Girasole (the sunflower) as the sunflower may you forever follow the suns violent light and as the sunflower may you abandon your movement and control allowing the sun to strip of you all that which you brand necessary and as the sunflower may you drop your heavy head and release each and every seed without cause or judgement leaving you alone to stare at this earth beneath you and as the sunflower may you see the birth of yourself as your true self multiplied indefinitely and as the sunflower may this birth and this fantastic beauty surpass even you… ….as you…’la girasole’ bow to the majesty of you
It will be the little things that you will remember, the quiet moments, the smiles, the laughter. And although it may seem hard right now, it will be the memories of these little things that help to push away the pain and bring the smiles back again.
Janet, I so liked your mother. I fondly remember the way she lit up the office when she visited and the insightful handwriting analysis she did for both Rob and me. It’s a great loss. We’ll miss her. We’re thinking of you and your family. Take care, Susan
Janet, You are the kindest person I have ever met. I will always treasure the memories of our fun times together. You were so gracious inviting everyone to your home. George and I will miss the stories we shared and the picking on Gene. Don’t you worry – we will keep picking on him for you. George and I appreciate the home made sausage bread you made for the group on may occassions. You always took care of the group! I will always remember your smile. Rest in peace but you know you’ll be serving your sausage bread no matter what! WE WILL MISS YOU but you’ll always be in our hearts. Love you, Sheree & George Wittman

We are Joann’s neighbors and we had the privilege of meeting Janet once. We were struck by her vitality and zest for life. We are very sorry to hear about her untimely death.
What a wonderful, beautiful and gracious woman. I have never met a more kind and loving family. I feel honored to have known her. Rest in peace Mrs. Chino.
