Janice's sister Judie, KHS '66, reached out to me and shared this sad news regarding her "little" sister Janice. As a result of this interaction, Judie and I had such a wonderful talk and I feel as though I have a brand new friend and classmate. Judie is planning to attend her KHS Class Reunion (KHS '65 & '66 combined) in early October, 2015, in Hampton. We also plan to attend the Friday Night event and it will be such a pleasure to actually meet her in person and give her a hug. Many of you probably remember Janice and if so I encourage you to leave a comment. Rest In Peace and Perpetual Light, Janice!
