Janice and my mom Patricia Haygood were good friends and bowled together for years. I can see them bowling together in heaven.

I always enjoyed running into Jan when walking around the neighborhood or visiting with neighbors on her porch in Village Green. She always had a twinkle and a bright smile.

I haven't seen Jan in several years but we sure had some fun times at Gilroy Bowl. She was so fun and we shared many laughs. RIP Jan. You will surely be missed.
