Vera, Janette, or “Tot” was born and raised in the Enon community and attended Pike County High in Brundidge. She began working at the ASCS office now the Farm Service Agency and later extension in the historic Rock Building in Troy. Janette returned home to be a stay at home mom until her children began school. In later years, she retired from Regions Bank as a teller to spoil grandchildren; to sew on many, many, many projects; and to enjoy gardening and fishing with her husband, Bennie, along with the grands in tow. In her spare time, Janette loved to entertain family and friends with some of her best southern dishes and desserts. Through the years Janette was a devoted member to Enon Baptist Church serving as a Sunday School teacher, VBS director, cemetery committee member, and serving where needed.
Vera, Janette, Mom, Grandma Net, Aunt Tot—all names for one who will be greatly missed and remembered for her warm smile, willingness to serve, love of laughter, exceptional cook, and ability to share a good tale.
