Janet was a devoted friend, loving mother and wife. She was an expert seamstress, had a long career in color and fashion consulting, and thoroughly enjoyed a deep passion for cooking and culinary cuisine. Later in life, she worked for Andronico’s Market as one of the cooking school instructors/directors and brought joy, inspiration and enthusiasm to all who met her during her career there. She had a passion for gardening, needlepoint, making doll clothing for Children’s Hospital of Oakland, clothing for infants and children for her son Steven’s volunteer medical trips to India and Africa, and generously donating time and energy to various community organizations as well as any special projects for family and friends. She was passionately dedicated to her Foodies, Newcomer’s and Alamo Women’s Club and Garden Club groups, enjoying so many of the friends she met through these organizations. She will always be remembered for her tireless, friendly, smiling spirit, finding the good in everyone she met, and always available to lend a helping hand through cooking, sewing or acts of selfless kindness to friends, neighbors and those of her community.
