David Ty Carruthers
Darvin & family:
It's hard to lose someone whose path you've crossed with a few times while on Earth. Janet and I were part of a few people who can claim attendance at a rural 2 room school house in Columbia. I attended ISU at the same time as Darvin and Janet and was a member of the 1976 Ag Travel Group which took us through Central Europe. The Lippizan stallions and breeding farm in Hungary were especially dear to Janet as an avid horse enthusiast.
I can't help but believe Janet, having been called from on high, is now caring for many dogs, cats, and horses in Gods animal section. It would not be a surprise to find Trigger, Buttercup, Mr. Ed, Flicka, Felix, Rin Tin Tin and Lassie under her loving care. As cartoon animal favorites of Janets childhood and others of that era; not a better caretaker would be found.
Janet will be missed greatly. May the many wonderful times and memories of her devotion to others and life itself sustain all through this time of losse.
