Help Janine Henning Start Again After Tragedy

Donation protected
Wednesday, April 17th, 2019 Janine Henning's life changed forever, when a fire broke out in her home.

Before I tell you more about the fire and everything Janine Henning has gone through, I first want you to know what an amazing woman she is, I want you to know her for her heart, and not just for her tragedy. When you meet Janine, you know one thing immediately, for a woman so small, she loves so big, so deeply, and so unconditionally, that her heart could easily eclipse the sun.

If you know Janine, you know nothing was more important to her than the people she loved, and that she would sacrifice anything in this world to make sure they felt no pain, and nothing brought her more joy than when she could help and take care of them.

Janine has spent the past 30 years at Grandlake Blvd. with her Father-In-Law, raising her children, and many other people's children. If you entered her home Janine would apologize for the mess, and as you looked around, you'd see a spotless home, with nothing out of place. As you looked around you'd see walls covered with her children and her Grandchildren, and smell one of her famous meals cooking on the stove. She would quickly sit you down and offer you a plate and a place to stay, her Father-In-Law, Richard Henning would come down the steps, and join you at the table for jokes and conversation. You'd quickly see how much Janine loved, respected and took care of Richard, and how well they got along. Richard would sit next to you, and Janine would make a plate for him. You'd see her exuberant energy, you'd see that she never sat once, but instead buzzed around making sure everything was perfect for you and Richard. She would soon begin bragging about her children and Grandchildren, and then tell you how after her divorce several years ago, she finally found love again, with a wonderful man, who respected her and made her feel beautiful, Brian Bachman. When you finally left her home, she would send you off with a big bag of food and treats, and the shirt off her back if you asked.

If you only remember one thing about Janine, let it be this... To know Janine, is to know love.

Wednesday, April 17th, 2019 everything changed for Janine. A fire broke out in her home and took everything from her. She lost Richard, Brian, her home, and everything inside. I will post a video link below, with more detail.


Janine does not know how or why she survived the fire. On paper the home was not Janine's, but everyone knows it was her home, and that she has been there the past 30 years. Janine really needs our help to begin again. Money will not bring back Brian and Richard, but it can help Janine start on the right track. Her heart is broken, the loss is too much for any one person to have to go through. If you can't help financially, please help with your prayers. She would never ask anyone for anything, she has strong faith in the lord, and knows God will provide for her. However, Janine has spent her entire life taking care of others, she gives all of herself to her friends and family, and it's time we all return the favor. It's time we take care of her, and surround her with the same love she has given so freely. I ask you to please find it in your heart to help Janine in her time of need. Thank you.
