I am so sorry for your loss. I had the honor of working with Jan for several years in the law office as well as being her neighbor. We had a number of heart to heart talks while sitting on her back patio overlooking the pond. She was one classy and intelligent lady. I will always cherish our times together and remember her by her kindness and contagious laugh.

Janet & I were stenos together @ IHC many years ago when she was a Koenig and I a Simone. We then went our separate ways; got married; and had children.
May you RIP, my friend. Virginia (Ginny) Wyman
