Janet made a career for herself at Wyeth Ayerst in Rouses Point, NY. After the plant shutdown, she bravely went back to school where she obtained her certification to become a registrar at UVHN CVPH. In January of 2021, she joined her husband in retirement. Although she only got a few short work-free months she thoroughly enjoyed her time at home doing the things she loved most. She was everyone’s favorite seamstress, always willing to lend a helping hand when a quick stich was needed. For many years, she beautifully created stained glass art pieces, which she shared with many. But her biggest talent of all was her ability to make people laugh. Part of her crazy antics were her thick and recognizable ‘Boston accent’ and her very colorful vocabulary.
