Not sure what to say?

Jan was such a beautiful human being, and such a great neighbor to Leah. She was the most diligent nurse at UMass when I contracted mono in the winter of 1986, and Jan still exemplified that same gentle diligent concern when we crossed paths in 2021, when the whole world contracted mass psychosis. I already miss her. Jan kept up with my trials and tribulations, with genuine interest. My heart goes out to Jan's family, and to all of her neighbors suffering her loss. May we all strive to live...

I am so sorry for your deep loss, Tim, lovely daughters, and lively grandchildren. I am one of the many neighbors who was fortunate to be befriended by Jan. We met while she was out raking leaves, over which we commiserated when I came by on a walk. It was easy to strike up a fun, and at the same time meaningful, conversation with her. I think it was because she was kind and open, and liked people. May your memories of her be a comfort to you all.

I am so saddened to hear of Jan´s passing. She was such a special person. She spoke of her family often and with so much love, she was proud of all of them. Jan also cared about all of her patients, she was truly the best NP. I am blessed to have known her. My heart goes out to her family.

Jan Martyn was my colleague and one of the VERY BEST Nurse Practitioners! I send my sincerest sympathy to her family.

oh how I loved Jan. Our girls were so close when they were young and in turn Jan became a good friend. we reconnected at the Y and I relished seeing her and getting news about sweet Jess & Julie. Jan was selfless and so giving and the hardest worker I have ever known. She was rock solid, the salt of the earth . I will always remember the time we spent together at their lovely home on the Vineyard. It was a beautiful home as was her home in Northampton (which she gave to her daughter&...

Heartfelt condolences to Tim, Charlie, Julie, Jesse and all the family. Jan exemplified Grit & Grace. She was LOVE. Not something she did, but who she was. She will never be forgotten. RIP dear friend.

How sad. I worked with Jan for years at UMass for many years. She was a wonderful nurse practitioner and a devoted mother and grandmother. What a loss for her family.

Had the pleasure of meeting this very cool, lovely lady at CDH. Rest in peace and condolences to her family.
