She was a 1959 graduate of the former Dunlap High School and enjoyed a life as a wife, mother, and homemaker. Janet was a loving daughter, wife, mother and grandmother and friend who will be greatly missed by all of those who knew and loved her.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her oldest brother, Clifford Booth; two brothers-in-law, Ray Crawford and Joe Ash; and an infant grandson, Jon Adam Hunter.

As generous in death as she was in life, Janet donated her body to the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine.

A memorial service in her honor will be conducted Saturday at 2 p.m. in The Church of Jesus at Fairlea with the Rev. Koon officiating.
