Not sure what to say?

its 9 years since you left us! and i think of you so often, you crazy lady! i do miss you and will cherish the happy memories of you....mili the other crazy lady!!!

Jan and I were classmates at Stuttgart American High School and met again at our school reunion in Tuscon many years later and it was as if the years had melted away as we remembered those days we shared together in Stuttgart. I will remember her warmth and her cheery smile and I thank her wonderful Dale for sharing her mother's life with those of us that may have been miles apart , but remained close to her in spirit. Dale provided us with a loving tribute to a life well-lived with love.

We too are thankful for the short time Jan was part of our lives. It is such a blessing to see the love of God in one of His children. As we mourn, we sing with joy that she is with God now. Our prayers, Rosie and George King

I have a lot of memories of Jan from when I was kid! I will be keeping her family in my thoughts and prayers in the following weeks.....

I know that Jan loved Jesus, so she is smiling for Him now! And perhaps she is even sitting with Mary today, on this special Mothers' Day.

I did not know Jan well, but as one of her Avon customers I can tell you that she never made me feel like a stranger. I thoroughly enjoyed doing business with her!

I need to send out a big thank you to Dale for providing the continued email updates on Jan. I really appreciated them.

May God bless the entire family and...

In the few short years I have known Jan, it is difficult to imagine not knowing her!!! she was vibrant, fun, eager to learn, shared knowledge and absolutely loved her family...I will miss her very much, and I grieve for the loss to all of us.Miss you, Crazy Lady!

Janet and I attended Stuttgart and U of Md, Munich together. Some of my fondest memories are of our class trip to Copenhagen by bus. I have many pictures of her taken on that bus trip, and enjoy reliving those times in my memory. We met up again at the Arizona reunion and had a blast. We were going to room together at the Washington reunion but my husband developed cancer and had to have chemo at the time of the trip. I will be so sorry for having missed that last opertunity to visit with...

Jan's upbeat outlook and incredible drive have been an inspiration to our family more than 1,000 miles away as my mother, one of Jan's high school classmates, has undergone her own challenges with colon resection and recovery. Even though I only met her once (at one of mom's high school reunions) she reached out to me and my mother from the middle of her own struggle with great words of hope and encouragement. I did not really know Jan, but I feel certain that she lived her life to the...
