My sincerest sympathy to Janet’s whole family. I feel blessed to have known her. She was a kind and positive person to be around.

Jan was always a breath of fresh air, kind, smart, a quick wit like her mother and a deep abiding faith which gave her a solid sure character. She was loving and devoted to her family and a mother bear when necessary. It was a privilege and delight to have been her pastor and friend during my days in Springfield. Go in peace good and faithful servant.
