Janie was diagnosed shortly after birth with 9p Monosomy a chromosome defect, at the time of birth I believe only 250 people had been diagnosed in the world. Janie in the beginning of life was not expected to walk, talk, dress herself, complete school, and or a million other limits they put on her. She exceeded every one with flying colors and continued to Amaze us every year we had with her. Janie resided with her Mother Cheryll who passed in 2019 from uterine cancer and Father Jim Koborg until 2021. She then moved into a new house with Julie where she was incredibly happy and was so excited for. Janie was a Sweet, Caring, Witty, and Awesome Soul to be around. Those who knew her Loved her, she had huge Love for All things Lion King, Transformers, Ninja Turtles, Muhammad Ali, and anything nostalgic. We continue to find all of the huge blessings she bestowed on our entire family. We will miss all the quirky ways she would say our names or find the right things to say when we all needed it. She was a Fighter and had multiple, I mean multiple surgeries and procedures and this kid was such a warrior. She will always remain the Strength and Soul of this Family and we have Peace knowing that she is hanging out with Mom again drinking a Diet Coke brushing Mom's Hair. We find ourselves in this great sadness forever grateful for the Life and Love she did give to All of Us. We were very blessed to have forty years we did have with this Fragile and very precious Gift. HAKUNA MATATA Janie Thank you for Everything you ever taught Us. Mufasa and PRIME take good care of Our Jane Bird and MOM. Janie is Joined in Death with her Mother Cheryll A. Koborg, both of her Grandfather's Henry J. Turner and Robert A. Koborg.
