Janet L. (Klingensmith) Kaufman, 65, of Adrian, went to be with the Lord, Tuesday June 26, 2018, after a long illness. Janet was born on November 23, 1952, to Basil and Evelyn (Carly) Klingensmith. She met her husband Joe in 1968 and was married about a year later.

The couple spent 49 wonderful years together. Janet was a wonderful wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend. She was a born again Christian and enjoyed Gospel music and watching the new movies like “Gods Not Dead”, “Gods Not Dead 2”, “Courageous”, “Norman” and “Fireproff” over and over.

Janet volunteered to take many people to hospitals, doctor visits, or even shopping. She drove ambulance for Sugarcreek EMS, starting before it became a paid service in 2001, while battling Crohn’s Disease. After her mother and father became ill Janet drove them to all hospital and doctor visits and took care of their needs until their passing.

She was a loving and kind person that would help anyone in need regardless the cost. Janet also loved playing cards and board games with her parents, family, and friends. She also loved traveling especially going to the beach where she could sit on the balcony and watch the waves rolling up on the sandy beaches.

She enjoyed driving family and friends to bingo in West Virginia, and once drove her family to New Jersey to her uncle’s funeral. She never asked for much but was content with what God had given her.
