I was only privileged to Know Janice for a little while, I met her when she was a patient at Broadview. and I was visiting the patients there. She always gave me something to think about. Only two days before she died , I had sat with another patient and Janice out in the Sun. While there we observed a very large number of ants at our feet. WE spent about an hour discussing why God had made (the ants, so tiny, did they grow after they were born, or did they stay that size for life? And many other Questions. Another time she told me about how she tried to serve God in her daily live. The first time I met her when I told her I was not sure whether I was doing the right thing when I visited the patients she gave me some very helpful hints. I thank God for the short time I had with Janice. Love to all her family. from Pat Saunders.
