Conservation Society, Meals on Wheels, Concordia Lutheran Church, and an organization dear to her heart, Roy Maas's Youth Alternatives. After retirement Jan enjoyed traveling to many places such as China, Israel & the Holy Lands, Egypt, Europe, Hawaii, Mexico, the Caribbean and throughout the United States with several beloved friends.
She was preceded in death by her husband. She is survived by her 2 children, Larry Hudler & wife Doretta and Toya Gallaway & husband Grant; 4 grandchildren, Grant Gallaway Jr. & wife Dayna, Lauren Hudler, Maxwell Hudler and Quinlan Hudler; great granddaughter, Kylee Gallaway; sister, Lucile McKeever; numerous nieces, nephews and other relatives.
