Not sure what to say?

Janet was my cousin once removed. She was so generous with her time and attention when my daughter attended UCLA.

Jan was one of my all time favorite friends and mentor!

Dear Bill, My condolences to you and your family for the loss of your mother. I met you and spent time with Jan through Westwood Presbyterian Church. Jan was a lovely person, a vibrant and energetic lady. Jan welcomed me to Los Angeles and to Westwood Presbyterian Church. May God's warmth and love be with you in this time of loss. With sympathy, Holly Lawrence

What an honor to have known you, loved you, and be mentored by you. I loved your bright and honest smile, your humility, and the respect and generosity you bestowed on everyone who crossed your path of light. What a legacy to those of us who were close to you and to the world at large. Love you always, dear Jan.

Jan was one of those people you loved to be with. As a client of mine at the Beverly Wilshire we worked together to create successful fundraising events for the House Ear Institute. She was passionate about raising the most one could at each event to bring much needed funds to the Institute & their important work. She welcomed be warmly at each & every meeting. Through Jan I met my favorite boss Bill & his loving family. My deepest condolences to you all on your loss & I hope happy memories...
