I only met Winnie one time (at the grand party) and immediately felt the love that she had for friends and family. Jan has many of the same qualities and I am so blessed to have Jan as a friend and had the opportunity to meet her mother. I am praying for your family to find comfort and strength to get you through this difficult time.
Love,
Janice & Vince
