We will always remember Janel as being around as our children were growing up and visiting Mattoon. All the kids in the station wagon going "to the dump", and she always loved her Uncle Pete's homemade potato chips. Her hard battle is over, and she can now rest in peace. God Bless and Love You. Sorry we cannot be there today,but you will ALL be our thoughts and prayers!
