If this is the lady I am thinking of, she was a waitress at Elias Big Boy in Plainwell and lived across the street from our friends Phyllis & Dick at the mobile home park on Miller Road in Plainwell years ago. So sorry to read of this. Janet was so nice, friendly and a hard worker. Sorry to family & friends for your loss. ( Never knew her last name and had forgotten her first name).
