    My sympathy to Janine’s family. So sorry to hear this news. Janine was my first friend when my family moved to Hutchinson in 5th grade. She lived kitty-corner from me and we spent almost every day together playing. She would organize “camps” for the neighborhood kids in the summer. Lots of sleep-overs and trips to the corner store for candy. She was a wonderful friend. Sending prayers for all her family.

    My condolences to Janine’s family and friends. Our family lived a few houses away from the Mix family in Litchfield and I occasionally babysat. All of you will be in my prayers. Arlene (Schlumpberger) Moehring

    I was saddened & blessed, to have known Janine, for a short period of time. She served & waited on me @ the 10th street Hy-vee. We had our age & being Minnesota natives in common. I was born 5-31-1959, in Minneapolis & had a cousin, who had lived in Hutchinson, for many years. She will be greatly missed, by my Coffee Buddies & Me!

    My sympathies to the Mix families and Janine’s children and grandchildren. The Mix family was a neighbor growing up on 2nd Ave Sw Hutch.
    Gone to soon. My thoughts are with you all.
