Scott, Vicki, Beth and Amy,
Our sympathy for the loss of your mom. May she rest in peace. I am so sorry we were unable to attend her service. Jan was such a nice lady. We had a lot of great times with she and Tom in our younger years. Wayne and I stood up for them when they got married. We even went with them the first few days of their honeymoon. I'm sure Jan will be missed by her family and friends. Hugs to her kids.

Scott, Vicky and Beth, very sorry to hear about the loss of your mom. Mike often talks about your family being such good friends growing up. I still have a crystal bowl I received as a shower gift back in 1973. Hugs and prayers.

Amy, It was always one of my greatest joys to play golf with your Mother when I visited my family in LeMars. Your Mom was not only a great golfer but so kind, gracious and friendly. She was with me when I had my first ever hole-in-one on the then 145-yard over the river hole. My sympathies to you and your family. Your Mom always talked about you. She was so proud of you.
Peace and God Bless You,
Dorothy Powell

Jan was a friend of ours from the softball games in the past to the MahJongg games of the present. She always said, “I love you guys.” We will miss her. We are terribly sorry she is gone but know she now can be at rest and peace. Wishing peace for everyone who knew and cared about her!

Jan was such a wonderful woman. She had a way of brightening every room she was in. Feel blessed to have been her co-worker for so many years at Harker’s. She was a key ingredient in the Harker’s magic. Heartfelt sympathies to all of her wonderful family and friends. ♥

Vicky, Scott, and Beth,
I have fond memories of your Mom. Playing ball behind your house and she would come out and play second base. she could catch and throw with the best of them. And I remember the times she would come out and play basketball with us. And later serve us cookies.
I am thinking of you.

Our deepest sympathies to the Borchers & Lauders families. The news of her passing made me so sad. Jan was such a special friend to so many of us. She was the one responsible for getting the golf outings scheduled at Harkers and they were always a blast. She made work days fun and I’ll never forget her infectious laugh and great sense of humor. God speed Janners. Love you!!
