I bought the house at 5 Church St in Penacook from Jan and Ed, we corresponded for quite a while but it trailed off. I always wondered how she was doing. I knew about Ed's passing. Very sorry to hear that she had a tough time with dementia. My condolences to the family.

My Mom and Jan´s birth Mom were sisters. So we were first cousins. I had the pleasure of meeting Jan in NH with her birth sisters. It was an absolute pleasure to meet her and spend time together. We corresponded for a while until dementia made it difficult. I send love and prayers to her family.
