Jan was my neighbor and a great lady! I loved her and her gentel ways. She had a beautiful yard was at fantastic needle point work! She made some of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen, including a picture from a photograph she had of her and Len! It was incredible! This disease took her so quickly, I barely knew she was sick when she became bed ridden. I will miss her so! Good bye Jan I will try to look after Leonard for you...
