Memories and Condolences

Not sure what to say?





March 7, 2011

My thoughts and prayers are with all of the Ganey family. I have thought of you many times througout the years, as you have suffered such losses. I have many fond memories of Jan throughout our middle school years - sleepovers, whispered secrets, sharing youthful dreams of the future- and felt saddened that she was never to realize many of those dreams. May she rest in peace and her family know that she had not, and will not been forgotten.
