Beverly Gough Obituary
A loving mother, gifted, talented and deeply caring minister has departed from us this past week. Jan's career in church administration and development spanned St. Francis Center for Renewal, St. Thomas More, the Lutheran Synod, and Jordan Lutheran Church. Jan will always be appreciated and thanked for her love and care among us. We especially remember her devotion to her family and friends, and especially for those in need. And we particularly remember her ongoing and loving gift to her husband over their 50 years of love and marriage bringing to life their loving daughter, son and grandchildren.
Service: Feb. 16 at Jordan Lutheran Church, Orefield. Visitation 10 AM; Service 11 AM. Private interment. Arrangements by Keller Funeral Homes, Fogelsville. Condolences: www.KellerFuneralHomes.com.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Keller Funeral Homes, Inc., PO Box 52, Fogelsville, 18051 to help defray the funeral expenses.

Dear Jerry & Family,
We always think of heaven as being so far away, but imagine if it is only a conversation away. Thinking of you all and feeling that Jan will be right beside you today and always.
Wishing you peace & love,
Linda Levangie & Tom Cross

Sincere condolences to Jan's family, relatives, colleagues and friends.
Uncle Jerry, Katie, Josh and family... I am saddened to read your message. I remember Jan to be a strong, confident woman full of life with strong faith and love for her husband, children, grandchildren and extended family.
As she has done throughout her life, her spirit will continue to protect and guide us all. May we all find peace and comfort during difficult times from our happy memories and strength and courage in the days to come from sharing them. Your wife, Mom, Mother-in-Law and Grandma will be forever near in our hearts.
I have wished to have come to visit you all for some time and mention this often to my partner. Days slip by so quickly and life takes us on other journeys. I will continue to hope that this comes to be.
Sending long distance hugs and love, Heather and Chris and family.
Jan/Auntie Jan... forever near, never far.
Rest well now knowing you helped to raise a strong loving family in your time here. God speed on angels wings. Bless.
