To the family,
Ms. DuBois was my favorite actress. I loved her style and her sass on the tv show "Good Times." As a young girl, I'd get excited to see her name on the screen during the credits because it made me feel so proud of my name. You see, my mother loved her too and named me after Ms. DuBois. It made my name feel special from the other kids' names. I'll miss seeing her pop up on tv and in the movies from time to time. May she rest in peace!!

Rest in Peace Ja'Net DuBois. You were an exceptional actress and comic. You brought us many laughs during your time on Good Times. I looked up to you when I was a little girl. When my husband was a little boy, he told me he had a crush on you. He still did til you passed away. You were so beautiful and had a beautiful spirit. Rest Easy.

When I heard about Ja'net DuBois passing it was like the passing of a family member. If I was to look up the word "CLASS" in the dictionary, Ja'net picture would be there. She was one beautiful "Classy Lady." Ja'net was the life of the party on Good Times. There is a place waiting for you in God's Heavenly Choir. RIP. You are loved!!!

I was, and still am devastated by Janet dubois passing because loved her so much, I cannot even put it into words how much. -Immensely!! I grew up watching and idolizing her , not just with good times, but with other shows, and movies- she was oscar worthy, hands down!! No one could touch her talent wise,- an incredible actress! I always wanted to meet her to tell her just that. And she was so young and looked way younger than her years- stylish and classy. I know shes entertaining everyone up there in heaven as only she could. May her family find comfort and peace knowing how much the world loves her.

She was one of the most beautiful women to grace the television screen. She was amazing showing people of all color, through her portrayal of Wilona Woods, one of the pearls of wisdom my Grandmother instilled in us: You can be broke, but you don't have to look like it... Then she was a talented vocalist and song writer. Just an amazing, legendary talented woman. Truly a life and talent well-spent. Thanks to the family who sacrificed and shared Miss Dubois with the world! Thanks for making me laugh so many times through the years and even now I binge watch Good Times. I never realized how little camera time Ms. D got because she maximized it with her big awesome talent. Love You and May God Bless

We the people in Amityville, New York will never forget her support and appearances in our community parades, youth exhortations, and the times she lived in our neighborhood. Her smile, personality, warmth, and sense of humor was memories that will last US a life time. We were so proud to watch her on Good Times faithfully and she was loved in our community. May she receive her due Crown from God for her genuine love to US!
