About Me
- Janet Kay Gallagher
- My son,Ken,recently retired after 20 years service in the U.S. Navy. I am very proud of him. Good Friends are a Blessing. Red Hats for Jesus is a fun group, so glad to have this fellowship. The Wednesday Breakfast Club(JEWELS)brought me many wonderful friends. Each one is Special. The Weekly Writers Guild is a very important part of my life. I am the leader, since Nicholas, had to give it up to work more hours. Thanks for passing the torch to me. Emma, Elsie, Claudette, Judy, Betty Jo, I enjoy writing with you. New interest for us has been gained from joining with other writers at their meetings. Hope to gain lots of new friends there.
Oh, my goodness. So many. That's very sad. My heart goes out to you, their families and friends. I too heard about your hair dresser's son from a friend of mine in Marshfield. Terrible tragedy.
