I just wanted to say how proud I am to be one of the daughter-in-law's to Dad and Mom Janus. I loved him and will never forget what a wonderful father-in-law and sweet, father to his children, son-in-laws and husband to his wonderful wife, who stayed by him every step of the way. He will be in our hearts and prayers forever until we see him again.

Mrs Janus:
I was so sorry to hear of Joe's passing. I will always remember how he teased Kitch and all you Ladies in Club. He had such a great laugh and sense of humor.
I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.
Love,
Maggie Kelly (Mary Kelly's daughter)

I feel like I've known Mr. Janus all of my life. Paul, Larry and I talked about their dad a lot. The Janus family is top in our book. Everyone should be as lucky to have such a beautiful, loving family. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree and the Janus family is lucky to have Mom and Dad. God Bless you all.
