Jan Nelson

My prayers and love to you and your family, Julia. Memories of Jan are what will sustain us.

We are lucky and blessed to have known Jan. We always enjoyed his company and our pleasant and humorous chats with him and Julia as they walked down our street with Gigi. We're so sorry your huge loss, Julia and family.

Our warmest thoughts go out to all of Jan's family. Jan touched so many lives in such great ways. Jan was my friend, my mentor, my advisor, my first boss, my partner, and above all an inspiration to treat everyone with dignity and to be the best I can be. Jan enriched the lives of those around him.

My prayers are with your family. Jan retired from Valley one week before I started to work there. But on the occasions that I was able to see him I thought he was a very kind man. And his spirit seemed to always be a part of the store. I am saddened by your loss.

There are no words that comfort or console at this time, except just remember the all the time you had with Jan. He was a wonderful person and I appreciate the time I knew him. He hired me to work at Valley Sporting Goods and manage the lettering dept. I really enjoyed that job and all the people I met and worked with. Jan was a special person and I am glad I knew him. My thoughts and prayers are with you Julia, Letha and Ed.

Julia, Ed, Letha, May God Bless You At the time of your sorrow.
It was such a honor and pleasure to know and work for Jan. He will be missed in Modesto and the community.

What a great guy. Always was a pleasure to go to Valley Sporting Goods and have Jan there to help you.
