Minton and Christiano family,

I am so sorry for your loss. Janice was so kind to me. My mind is flowing with memories. The 1984 summer before I started 8th grade, in particular, I was with Jan for a long duration -- three weeks at Grand Beach. Some of those days involved Doe, Bern, and Michael in town -- many of the days just Jan and me. In theory, many to help renovate the place that summer, but when push came to shove, her and I laughed over and over again, that is was just the two of us holding the paint brushes at the end of each day. One other particularly good laugh I have looking back, is when I called her panicked as a clueless 26-year old starting a career and wrongly read a mandatory business-event invitation as business casual(it actually said business attire). This was in the suburbs, and too late to return to my apartment in the city, when I called Jan. She brought me into Michael's closet, and said well, let's find the newest, most-expensive, and best-looking suit, tie, shoes, and shirt in here. After trying them on -- with Jan's good taste in selecting -- she said, these are now yours permanently as you look so good in them, and that I deserve them most! I will miss her. She was such a nice lady. Her stuffed shells are the single greatest concoction my taste buds have ever encountered. Annie and Morgan, you meant everything to her. Jackie, you were her best friend. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Much love,
