This Thanksgiving, I am especially grateful for the many amazing women who have influenced my life, both past and present. If you know me or follow my blogs, then you know I have no memory of my beautiful and talented mother. In some ways though, I feel I got to know her through her wonderful friends. All my life, and even still to this day, I love when people talk about her. Knowing they were close to her makes me feel close to her.
Janice’s service and accomplishments create a list a mile long. Many know her as the lady that crash landed a plane after her husband died at the helm and lived to write a book about it, Won't Somebody Help Me!
It was also in her home that I grew to love music. I loved to listen to her late husband, Edmund, play jazz tunes on their Steinway piano, the first Steinway I ever played! All of her children played different musical instruments. Janice would host community talent shows and musicales in her home. I think my first public performance was at one of those talent shows when my sister and I played the fun duet, Heart and Soul! I could write my own book about the many ways Janice and so many other women have patiently and kindly poured into my life both physically and spiritually! I am blessed with mothers too numerous to count!
