Janet Duistermars

Jan was a blessing to have when she worked as an assistant at Jack Jouett with one of our young men. She always had a smile on her face and would offer encouragement and cheer to all. Even when she was not feeling well, she was here because "what would he do without me". Jan touched many childrens' lives with her genuine love and caring.

We will miss Aunt Jan dearly and our prayers are with all of you on this day of remembering. What a beautiful picture of Jan you have on this site. What I remember most about Jan,is when her, and my mother, and their mother our Gramma June would get rolling on something the laughter that came out of those moments, and there were plenty of them, was absolutly unforgettable as you can tell. I am so looking forward to getting together with all of you and celebrating her life. I was lucky enough to live for a short time with Jan in Phoenix when I was a young man and that is something I will never forget. Her kindness and accommodating nature made me feel so at home which she would bestow on anybody. We love you aunt Jan and will always remember your smile.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Jan was such a special person. I enjoyed talking to her alot. I was one of the "tall" tenors and sang with Jan in several of the Passion Plays. She spoke very fondly of her children. She will be missed.

What a beautiful tribute to a wonderful woman! She will be truly missed by us too!
