I am sorry to hear of Janet’s passing. I remember her as a very sweet lady that loved her family and friends. I would see her at the dentist office where I was employed. My prayers are with all of you. Carol Davis-McKinney
Thoughts and prayers to all of the Glessner family. The love you shared will keep your heart warm.
I really got to know Janet years ago through the women’s bible study at New Hope. She was always an inspiration and was loved by everyone. I was truly blessed to have known her.
What a special lady. She has found her treasures in Heaven.
Sorry to hear this… She was a great woman… I am glad that I got the chance to know her… my heart goes out to the family…. prayers being sent!!!
We were sorry to learn about your Mother. Our sympathy and prayers are with you.
So sorry to hear about Janet. Janet was a very special lady and will be missed by many. May she rest in peace. Our prayers go out to the family.
We missed Janet at New Hope Worship Center since she moved away and always will remember her smile and participation in our events through the years. She was a vital part of our church.
The loss of a beautiful woman with a big heart. Our love and prayers to all of you. Love from all of us.
I didn’t know Janet, but it sounds like she was a wonderful woman of God. I am happy that she is no longer suffering and that you will be with her again some day, Deb. Love, Vonnie
Thoughts and prayers from our family to yours. We are so sorry for your loss.
I knew Janet for more than 40 years. It didn’t take long for me to adopt her as my “Aunt” Janet. I have so many great memories growing up around her, whether it was spending the night, having dinner, or just hanging out at the Glessners. Later after I had grown and moved away, whenever I returned to town, It always brought a smile when I got the change to visit with her. I love and will miss my Aunt Janet, but I am content that she is no longer suffering the ravages of cancer. My love, thoughts, and prayers go out to Deb, Kimmie, Ben/Bonnie and the girls.
