Hi      Our Angel Has Returned Home

Today we laid to rest the heart of our family,

Our "Angel on Earth" has found her wings.

After a lifetime of caring for everyone else,

She has gone home to the peace the Lord brings.

For all those years here, she was our light,

Cooking, cleaning, and sewing love into every day.

She was the sister who led, the mother who stayed,

And the neighbor who never turned anyone away.

Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who meant to her the world,

Loving each one with a heart that knew no end.

She was our teacher, our guide, and our rock,

But most of all, she was our best friend.

We know she’s with Junior, our father, right where she belongs,

Reunited in a love that time cannot erase. We will miss her so,

We know she’s watching us from a higher, brighter place.

She isn't truly gone; she’s just changed her view,

Continuing her work from the heavens above.

Thank you, Mom, for every sacrifice you made,

And for wrapping our lives in your unconditional love.

Rest easy now, mom. Your work here is done.

Janet is preceded in death by her husband, Junior Palmer; her parents, Keith and Mildred (Tomlin) Roberts; one sister, Joletta Roberts; and one brother, Jerry Roberts.

She is survived by her two sons, Janon Palmer of Washburn, IA, and Jeremy Palmer of Black River Falls, WI; one daughter, Jo Linda (Craig) Henrickson of New London, WI; three grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; one sister, Jane McCord; and many nieces, nephews, and family.
