Not sure what to say?

I miss my beautiful friend, Jan, every day. She was such a big part of my life for many, many years. May you rest in heavenly peace, and may you be having as much fun as we always did here on earth!!!

How I loved my very dear friend, Jan. We spent years together having more fun than anyone else we knew! I still miss her every day, dream about the good times we had, and honor her for having two beautiful daughters, Kari and Stacy. May Jan continue to rest in heavenly peace. You were very loved on this earth, my dear friend!!

Another year has passed, and I continue to miss my dear Jan. May she rest in heavenly peace and know that her beautiful daughters, their husbands, and beautiful grandchildren are left to us as her legacy. I literally could write a book about the times we spent together!! More than anything, we shared such fun times!! Jan was an amazing woman and lived her life to the fullest.

I cant believe that it has been 3 years since Jans passing. I miss her everyday, and know how much a part of my life was influenced by her for years. I have many, many fond memories of our times together - those fun times, which were plentiful, and also sad times, a part of our lives, too.

Sorry to hear of your mothers passing. We were friends in high school and college. I have thought of her often thru the years, and now in my prayers.

To Janet's Family, Janet was one of my very close friends in both Jr. and High School. I knew the Family well. My prayers to her daughters and to her brother John. Barbara {Ozzie] Meier

I often wondered where Janet was. We grew up together on Eastwood in Detroit. When the Russell family moved to Grosse Pointe Woods my parents occasionally took me to visit Janet. But we eventually lost touch. I have great memories of our early childhood playing back and forth between our homes. Her brother John was part of those memories. Sorry for the families loss. Now I know where Janet spent her life. She sounds like a wonderful person and I wish we could have continued to be...

Prayers and condolences to Jan's family. I worked with her for many years and adored her for many years. She will be sorely missed.

Your mother was one of our favorite to exercise with.She will be missed by all of us. Sorry and prayers to the family.
