Jan had a profound impact on my life. We only worked together for a few years, but she was such a force of nature, that all these years later, I am taken aback by how often I think about Jan. She was a wonderful, smart, funny, kind, generous, vivacious woman and I truly miss her very much.

Mike, Michele, and family,

I just this afternoon heard this terrible news; please accept my deepest condolences. Having worked closely with Jan for several years in ComEd's Rate department, I fondly remember Jan as a smart, sweet, beautiful, energetic, and generous lady. Although we lost contact over the last several years, I remember Jan vividly, and mourn her loss. Please accept my, my husband Manuel's, and my daughter Gina's sympathy -- the world is a poorer place without Jan. With sincere affection, Coreen.
