Janis and Janis

Can you run the world from your basement?

Janis King could.

Can you lose your sight, yet see clearer than most of the people around you?

Janis King could.

Can you speak words of wisdom while you're going through?

Janis King could.

Can you be a nurse, travel the world, found a church?

Janis King could.

Can you earn the respect of everyone that you come in contact with?

Janis King could.

Can you remember little details about everyone you meet - or hear about?

Janis King could.

Can you remind your granddaughter, your namesake, how special the name "Janis" is?

Janis King could.

Can you be an example of a good wife and mother?

Janis King could.

Can you leave a legacy of love, support, and faithfulness?

Janis King could.

Can you celebrate having your sight, your limbs, your wings?

Janis King can.

Grandma King, 1948 - March 6, 2023
