Not sure what to say?

I remember Jan from school; we met in 6th grade. Fast-forward to 2015, at the Wilson High School 40th reunion, I found myself in a room full of old people...all except Jan Gregory. She looked exactly like that portrait, a picture of grace, surrounded by a press of friends; I surmised that she had been drinking from the Fountain of Youth, and would outlive us all. Four years later, and she's gone. Wow.

To Jan´s husband Steve and all her family and friends, Jan was such a vibrant, smart, gifted, and beautiful friend and sister in Christ. Jan and I met when I was performing broadway tunes at Jay´s Deli in Long Beach. She asked if I could give her voice lessons. We became instant friends and had been friends ever since. I remember many get-togethers, coffee and tea, a Christmas party at your family home, visits. After I moved from California, we talked several times. I´ve missed her. Steve, I...

So sorry to hear about Jan's passing.
Sh was always so kind. My sister Melinda
and I Knew Jan and her brother and sisters
back in the 1970's. We were neighbors of
Jan and her family back then.
I had run into her back in the late 1980's.
The whole family was so nice and her parents
were so kind as well.
To Julie, Louann, and Lynn our prayers
and our Thoughts to you and yur family
at this time.

Much Love,
Shelley Kimbrell Daigle
and Melinda...

Having first met Jan in kindergarden, she was one of my first friends. Jan was always a ray of sunshine; a true gem. She was one of the most genuine, caring people I've ever known. She always had a smile on her face. Her grace and beauty will be greatly missed.

So sorry for your loss Gregory family

Dear Steve,
Jan will be deeply missed by all who knew her. She was an intelligent, beautiful, talented, thoughtful and kind person who was full of life and brought joy to those who were fortunate to have known her. Jan was a dear friend for over 40 years and I will miss her friendship, wit and humor. She was fortunate to see the beauty in all that God has created around her and have you as her loving husband and friend for over 31 years. I know that the Lord was waiting for her in...

My condolences go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. May you find a measure of comfort found at John 6:40 which says that soon we will all see our loved ones again

Dear Mr. Wille... the words that immediately come to mind are so unoriginal -- "absolutely beautiful, inside and out"....I know you must hear that a lot. But what better way to describe "Your Fair Lady" ? (with a nod to Jonathan.) And now heaven is a brighter place. Please take care and stay close to your many friends...the sun will eventually come out again.

With love from Jeri.
