Jan Alan Nicholson was born in Little Rock, Arkansas on October 26, 1952, to the late H.M. “Nick” Nicholson and Anna Lou Varner Nicholson. He was a longtime member of Highland Baptist Church. When his sons were younger, Jan enjoyed watching them play tennis and run. He looked forward to being reunited with his sons, Brent and Blane, in heaven.
