While dealing with the effects of Parkinson's disease Janet Mary Sinke speaks to school children as well as community and church groups.
In her own words, “Look for blessings not only in brilliant rays of summer sun but also in clouds of storm. Recognize your own individual worth, share your own unique gifts and put to use the power that lies within your own individual soul. That way in your own moment of final surrender when the eyes are closing and the heart is stilled, your spirit will look back and say,' WHAT A GREAT LIFE!'"
