Hi Debi,
Of course, I didn't know that Janet played a vital role in 9-1-1. She stayed cool, and did her job well, while so many were in panic mode. And so many grandchildren, and even a great grandchild! She has certainly lived a full life. You've done well with introducing us to this fine lady, and offering her one of your excellent birthday poems. These biographical poems are so hard to put together, a real test of your poetical talent.
Nicely penned!
Hugs,
Kimbob

Comment from Tina Crute
You went above and beyond a simple Happy Birthday to a Happy Birthday and Thanks for being a hero to fellow Americans. this is lovely and speaks of you as much as Janet. It sounds like you two are cut from the same cloth and love to help people. Wonderful read!
Thanks for being a positive light on here:) I just came back after a break and am glad to find such sweetness of spirit still on here!

Happy birthday to Janet Foor who has been to big places and been there when needed to help all of us during that horrible time in America. Nice to now be retired and in NC. Go Blue Devils!

Hi Bill, Congrats on your win for your fun poem about making mistakes. I read it but have yet to review it. I did one similar not too long ago called Poetry Abuse. And that one won too. I guess everyone can relate to having those days.
I thank you so very much for your very kind comments for Janet and her poem.
I appreciate it so very much, my dear friend.

Thank you for sharing Janet Foor's birthday tribute with us. I have read and enjoyed some of her poems. I see I need to make a more conscious effort to read more of them. I enjoyed reading about this remarkable lady.
When husband sings, She plays piano, church will come alive (lower case 's' on 'she')
Her favorite, It's never too late to begin again (lower case 'i' on 'it's)

Wow, Barb, what would I do without you. My eyes read them many times, and I never caught those typos. I have a new strange upgrade that is supposed to help because my eyes can't do it anymore. Thank God I have a Barb in my system that never fails. LOL... Thanks Sweetie. You don't know how much I appreciate the feedback. The odd part is, it is the same system that is supposed to watch for them that seems to be putting them in there, unless I do it accidentally without knowing. So between mine and Sally's eyes, we have different software that I help check for hers when she is done with hers, I will check with mine and still misses mistakes.
My point being, I'm very thankful for you once again, my dear friend.

Hey, I don't have the eye problems and still make errors. I think it's part of us being human. LOL Sending love.
Comment from John Ciarmello
Happy Birthday, Janet!
The unsung heros of disasters and travesties before and beyond 911(the people behind the scenes) deserve as much credit as the brave folks on the ground. We often forget that these kind of efforts take planning and coordination. A quiet hero, for sure! Best, JohnC

Comment from Pam (respa)
Very nice artwork and presentation, Debi. Thanks for sharing the notes and poem. It is an incredible story about Janet. She is such a good writer, I had no idea this was her career.
Thanks for all you have done for our country, Janet. As Debi said, we are very thankful for you.
I imagine all of the grandchildren and step children keep you really busy; "you have quite a crew." I don't know how you do everything you do, and write on FanStory, too. Hope you had a very Happy Birthday and Thanksgiving, too.

You are very welcome, Debi. I was in awe of her accomplishments. I had no idea.
Comment from forestport12
Wonderful tribute. I didn't catch if she was a personal friend. I should have read into it more. I'll never forget going to NYC just a few months after to do a wood floor near lower Manhattan and the maintenance man said from his apartment he watched people jumping from the towers. She truly is a hero.

Forest, I thank you so very much for your very kind comments for Janet's poem and also for our heroic lady, herself. I appreciate and am honored by your six stars and there is no better place to dedicate them to than our Janet.
You have been so gracious and I can't thank you enough for this awesome review, my friend.
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
You always write a lovely tribute to the birthday person and seem to find out so many details. This one is very special as you also included the fact of her heroism during the 911 tragedy. I pray you are over the covid and are improving in your other illness.
