MD Birders:
Sorry I am late with this ...
This is so sad.
Among many memories, Janet was a student of the history ornithology. Many years ago I remember attending a presentation by her on the history of ornithology at the Anne Arundel Bird Club. She started out with Pliny the Elder and went from there. I loved it!
My wife and I also remember sharing her sadness when her long-time pet African Gray Parrot, Pascal, passed away a number of years ago. She was very close to him.
Janet also served as the MOS Publications Committee Chair and the organization is indebted to her for first loading all of the Maryland Birdlife issues, from 1945 to 2000, onto a CD-ROM that was distributed to the members to provide digital access to the journal's archives.
We will very much miss Janet.
Phil
