Butchee family: I was saddened deeply to hear of Jan's passing. She was such a gift to all of us while attending school in Buna. Her laugh and great sense of humor always kept us going....oh, and I remember a time or two that it may have gotten us into trouble too....especially during band practice!! I will be praying for God to bring you great peace and comfort in your wonderful memories of your daughter and sister. Annette Turner Henderson (1969 graduate)

I am very sorry to learn of Jan's passing. She was a classmate and fellow high school band member of mine. She had a great sense of humor and wonderful laugh. She sat behind me in many classes since we were seated alphabetically. Also, Texas A&M is my alma mater. May God give comfort to all family and friends. David Bond
