Janet Hawkins

Janet was born February 17, 1938 a proud New Yorker to William and Jean (Carey) Quinn. She realized early on that she had a passion for helping people and she went on to earn her degree in nursing. She was a dedicated registered nurse her whole career. Toward the end of her career, she was a dedicated Hospice nurse. Many people were touched by her loving care. Janet loved her family and friends. She moved to Florida in 1989 to be near good friends and the beach she loved so much. She also loved a "good bargain" at Ross! She was a wonderful mother and friend and she will be missed dearly. The family wishes to thank the team at Premier Home Living where she has lived for the past few years. Very special thanks goes to Dave Pollack and Dr. Jill Studley, along with the all caregivers whose love and care kept her comfortable and content for the last few years. Also, thanks to all of our family and friends for their support and kind thoughts. Janet is survived by her daughter Patti Goodwin (Glenn), grandchildren Danny and Audry Goodwin, brothers William T Quinn (Susan) and Thomas R Quinn (Irene), nieces and nephews Stephen, Elizabeth and Jonathan Quinn. The Mass of the Resurrection will be celebrated on Saturday, December 19, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church, 2700 W Spring Creek Pkwy, Plano, Texas. There will be a reception in the Parrish Hall immediately following the mass. If desired, donations may be made to the Alzheimer's Association (www.alz.org) in memory of Janet Q. Hawkins.
