Janet met her husband John Mullen at an optical store where she worked on Chestnut Street in Philadelphia, PA. John didn’t need glasses then, but he just had to meet her. They were married in 1971 in Berlin, N.J., and had one child, Christopher, her pride and joy, in 1972. The family moved to Medford, NJ in 1980, where they planted their roots

In the 1980’s, Janet co-owned  a successful local catering business. In the 1990’s, She helped her husband, John build and run Court House Legal Services in Cherry Hill, NJ, now owned by their son, Christopher.

Janet, known for her competitive streak, was an avid tennis player and formidable opponent in any type of trivia or board game. Well-known for her superior cooking and hostessing, loved ones recall her family dinners, crab fests and delicious signature dishes over the years. She was also a huge fan of the Philadelphia Eagles, Phillies and Clemson Tigers.

  • The service from Millennium was outstanding. Rachel was sweet, personable and very comforting. It was important to me that my dad was kept locally where I knew where he would be. Very nice facility, state of the art and quality of my fathers remains were so refined compared to my mothers years ago. I highly recommend this place for an affordable choice for your loved one. Thank you for making an already stressful event easy. With high regards, the Esposito and Keith Family.

  • Millennium Cremation provided a fantastic service to our family at a difficult time. Our beloved mother passed away in Vero Beach and the rest of the family was in other parts of the country. Due to the Covid health crisis, none of us could get to Vero Beach in person. That's where Millennium took over. They helped us manage everything, coordinated with a cemetery in Maine, managed the obituaries, expedited all the paperwork, and even delivered an important document locally that saved us days. Funeral director Rachel was a godsend, and she made it clear what she was going to do, and what we needed to do. If you know what you want, Millennium is highly recommended, and the savings versus the full service mortuaries is significant.
