Jan was one of my best friends and golf partner. We were on the social committee for our golf group. I missed her so much then and still have wonderful thoughts of when we were together. Eve Bols

Jan was one of my best friends, we did a lot together, golf, lunches, etc. We had a lot of fun serving on commity on trying to get business's to help us with golf gifts for certain games. Of course it was a ad for their business. We were close and I waited for Jan's annual St. Patricks dinner at her home. She is so missed. Rest in Peace Jan!!!

Jan and I grew up together on Sunset Hwy. Renton and were classmates at R.H.S "53". We spent long hours along with her sibs and my brother playing Monopoly on days such as today (snowy).
She was like a sister. Reading the other comments describes the Jan I knew.

I will miss Jan. She fought a long, hard battle, but her spirit was always strong. We shared many fun memories -- trips to Las Vegas & Mexico with the SCWWSC, plus a New Year's Eve party in our home while my son and Jan's daughter Linda, and our grandchildren were visiting SCW. Her St. Pat's parties are also special memories. Jan's Ya Ya sisters all miss her too. Blessings to Don, Linda and all the family. We share in your loss. Peggy Parsons, SCW, Az.

Our sympathy goes out to Don, Linda and family. I know how much Jan is going to be missed. As for me, I will miss her so much. We talked daily, golfed together, we even would sneak over to McDonalds for a ice cream or two. She was my buddy, my shopping mate, my confident and she will be surely missed by all. I'm glad the pain is over for her and I'm sure God is with her and has a special place waiting. Don & Eve Bols
