I just found out Janis had passed away yesterday via her swap-bot. She and I signed up the same year and had been swapping cards and letters for 13 years. One of her Christmas cards has been hanging on my cabinets all month, as always at Christmas and every other holiday. I was devastated when I saw the note from Troy on her profile. I had a turbulent year with calling off an engagement and hadn’t swapped often this year, so I hadnt noticed she wasnt around until I started Christmas swaps. She will be terribly missed in my life, as I know she will others in our little community. I actually still host some of her swaps, Peanuts cards mainly. Thats whats hanging on my cabinet, a joyful, glitter filled Peanuts Christmas card. I will be mailing a sympathy card out in the next few days. I would like to keep holiday swaps going for Grayson, if everyone is okay with that. Janis was so thoughtful and so kind, and will be SO very missed, in my mailbox and my messages. I pray you’re all doing okay and youll find some comfort in knowing she brought so much joy to my life for 13 years and was a wonderful friend. ❤️
