I was so sorry to hear of Jan's passing. I have known Jan for about 55 years. She was a neighbor and marries my friend of 60+ years, Steve Holmes. Steve and his brother Doug and Mark are very close friends who paled around since we were kids. It was sad to have lost them both, but I am happy they are back together again and with Matthew. God BLESS the Holmes family.
