In Memoriam
Janet Hendrix passed away January 15, 2007 after a brief struggle with cancer, but her spirit lives on in our continued work. Her kindness and concern for everyone she met was her greatest gift. Her love of children truly made them the heart of the practice.

Janet is missed by all who knew her.
