It is so sad to learn about the passing of our beloved Janet( zl). She was truly a warm and caring person and was cherished by my parents, Gloria and Chaim Feinberg. My parents recalled some Holocaust stories with me last night. Each time I met her in Chicago, she was more like a relative than a friend of my parents. May the fond memories of the past bring comfort to you at this time.
