Janie Shaw- my O'Bryonville next door neighbor


I got the news this weekend. Janie had passed. She was 89. I had just seen her the week before. She was born in Alabama and had lived on Cohoon St. the last 50 years. She was a great friend and neighbor. She knew them all: Becky, Jasper, Sarah, Willie Dog, Hobo and the cats, Po'Boy and all the neighbors: Buck, Emmanuel (Email), Easy, Oh Boy, Miss Catherine, Snake Bait, Amani, Floyd, Ella Walker, Tiny and on and on.
