February 2023

It’s a bit past Valentine’s day, but it is still February and I am ready to write. These were my thoughts earlier this month. Take the time to listen to the songs! Then, scroll down for my big announcement.

My first Valentine’s Day without my husband of over 50 years. Who knew when we first kissed on that apartment balcony the amazing journey we were beginning? I will always love you. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CJVn0hpBVuE

My friends and family. Over the years you’ve been there for me through the highs and lows. I could not have made it without you. I love you all to the stars and beyond. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2DorNUsi5LE

For those special others, you played a part of my life that will live forever in memories. I don’t have to name names, you know who you are. I learned from each of you. I loved each of you in your time and always will. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ekknwl5Luz4

And finally, the ultimate love gift of all, the love of God. It goes beyond all other. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=97w-I87urvo


And now . . .

You all know how much I love the summer season and the beautiful beach in Florida where our family has vacationed for over 50 years. Last summer our family committed both Joe’s and Jay’s remains to the ocean at Flagler Beach and now, at some point this spring it will become my permanent home! Of course I’ll be back to Georgia to visit friends and family often, and I know they will come to visit me in sunny, warm, Florida beside the sea. In my heart I will forever remain “GeorgiaJanet.” Here is a glimpse of my new home.
