What a special sister! I was Janille’s visiting teacher a few years ago and enjoyed going into her home and experiencing the sweet spirit there. She loved people, her furry friends, her family, and making humanitarian quilts as well as other needed items.. She loved sharing her love of the Gospel, which radiated from her sparkling eyes and lovely smile. Thank you, Janille, for being a wonderful example and friend! Junene
Janille was one of the first Sisters in our ward and since she was in the RS Presidency, who came and welcomed me in my home 21 years ago. She was such a sweet and cheerful Sister and I loved being a friend and I have many fond memories of our friendship. May your family be blessed until you meet again. Eva
