She has been married to her high school sweetheart, Dan, since 1987.  She and Dan have raised three children together and are delighted as their family continues to grow adding two daughters-in-law and a son-in-law; and is now Gramma to 3!  She enjoys spending time with her family, traveling with her husband, spending time with friends, reading and taking walks.  She desires to live her life in such a way that others will be pointed to her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  You can contact Pastor Janet at pastorjanet@thewaters.org.
