My condolences to your family--I'm really going to miss seeing Jan at the Active Generation Center. She and I met in the workout room and friends ever since. I loved her smile, her kindness, and sharing things about our families. We both loved Younkers and were sorry to see them go. She liked her crafts. She loved her family very much. It's hard to lose a mother or grandmother because they are a very special person in our lives. I will be praying for all of you in this time of loss. Hold on to the wonderful memories you made.
