Janet was a wonderful mother who was always there when she was needed the most, offering support, wisdom, and love in abundance. Professionally, Janet held various roles in catering, food services management, and furniture sales. Janet’s love for her Savior and Lord Jesus was a major influence in how she lived out her life. As a long-time member of St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Monaca, she found solace and strength in her community of faith. Her commitment to her church extended beyond attendance. She served as a CCD teacher, lector, Eucharistic minister and after the death of her grandson, Janet became a guiding force in the Grief Share program at both St. John’s and later at St Francis Cabrini Catholic Churches. Janet’s understanding and empathy provided a source of comfort, healing, and friendship for those grieving the loss of a loved one. Her ability to listen and her willingness to share her own experiences made Janet a saving grace to many. Her legacy of care and support will be remembered by those she helped during their most challenging times.

Janet’s influence will continue to be felt. Her love for her family, her passion for helping others, and her deep faith have left an indelible mark on the world. The family will now commence to fighting over her recipes for her homemade sauce, meatballs, noodles, and pizzelles.

In accordance with Janet’s wishes, all services will be private. Arrangements have been entrusted to Simpson Funeral and Cremation Services, 1119 Washington Avenue, Monaca.
