My prayers and sympathies are with Mavis's family and friends. We lived near Mavis, her parents and sisters when I was a boy, and time spent with Mavis could always make us smile. Her Aunt Flora was my grandmother, and Mavis and Lloyd had their wedding breakfast at our house. I am sure that many people will miss her.

My deepest sympathy for your loss. I worked at 2958 for almost ten years and had many conversations with Mavis...quite a "fiesty" lady. I enjoyed her.

My sincere condolences to all the Jansen Family. Mavis, I am going to miss you very much. Together, over the 4 years, we had so many laughs, and giggled over the stories that we told each other. We always parted with a hug a smile. Giving you a kiss on the cheek, and saying, "You take care Mavis eh!" was one of lifes many highlights. Mavis, when we meet in heaven, we still have lots to talk about eh! Till then....Love ya!!!
