Dear Christian Family - JANNNN set the standard for being a man. He was very caring, funny and his wit was second to none. I will miss seeing him with Mark and hope he gets to enjoy his favorite Whopper Jr once more. Rest easy pal.

Dear Mark, Karl, and family,

I have such fond memories of Uncle Jan and Aunt Angie. Although I am sad at his passing, I am so glad they are together again.
Uncle Jan's work ethic was unsurpassed and his legacy will certainly live on for many years to come as a result.

May God bless you all during this difficult time.
Love you❤
