"To the family... Chad, Neil, and Seth, Fred and I send our sincere condolences. Jan was a great ER Nurse, mentor, and friend. She spoke highly of her family. She always had an answer to our many questions. I will never forget her, as she was like a work mother to many of us. She loved conversations about gardening. One of her favorite flowers were pansies. She purchased my first set of gardening tools, along with a gardening book when my husband and I married. Jan will be missed dearly......❤"
"Chad and Seth, Jan meant so much to me during my time at Columbia. She talked so much about Seth and how much fun she had with him. I left the ER in 1998. I remember he wisdom, humor and dedication to everyone around her. I am so very sorry for your loss."
"Beautiful Service today. Chad, Seth, Neil, Renee and Amanda, you are all in my prayers."

"Growing up, Jan was often the bane of my existence. The little sister that started all the mischief and rarely got in trouble. As we grew older, she became my best friend and confidant. When I enter the next world, I will listen for the laughter. There I will find Jan, surrounded by people and telling one of her ridiculous stories. I miss her laugh more than anything."
"Chad, Seth and Neil, I send warm, healing thoughts and prayers for the loss of Jan on this worldly Earth and the gap that will remain without her presence here. She was always fun to spend time with at extended family events. I remember first meeting her after Greg and I got engaged. She was warm, full, real and fun. In the absence of a future mother-in-law, I often followed her and Edie's guidance at family events. I am glad to have had time with her and will miss laughing and talking with her and treasure the memories."
"Chad I'm so sorry for your loss. We loved Jan. She just laughed so hard at my Blackie tearing up the interior of my car . I can still hear her laughing."
