My Aunt Jan was like a sister to me. I don't remember ever being without her. As a a kid I spent my summers with her and the boys. In junior high she picked me up and took me to school and I would walk to her house everyday after school. She will be sorely missed by her best friends Peggy, Patty, Jane and I. She was proceeded in death by her sister Guelda Riddle my mother.
