Our hearts are saddened with Jan’s passing. She was a lovely lady who I’m honored to have call her friend. Please know you & your family are in our thoughts & prayers.
Erin and Leigh, Corliss and my hearts ache for you and your families. Our only consolation is knowing that your mother has been reunited with your father and is now in God’s comforting arms. We couldn’t see each other as often as we wanted to during her illness because of this damn virus, but she was constantly in our prayers. We feel blessed to call her our friend and will miss her larger than life laugh. I’m sure your father greeted her with open arms and a schedule.
I had the honor of working with your mom and dad with Brookwood Band. Every time I think about the activities with the band, they all include your parents. Jan and I would meet the opposing band at the elementary school and bring them to the stadium. We shared many laughs. I always enjoyed the time spent with them. Jan is now with Ed and keeping you in their hearts.
Erin and Leigh,
Jim and I are so sad about your mother’s death. She was a wonderful, happy and caring person. We rejoice in knowing that she is with your dad and that she is no longer having to struggle with her illness. Please let us know what we can do to help you. Love on your sweet husbands and dear children. We love you all.
Erin and Leigh, I thought the world of your father and mother. I am so sorry for your loss. I know you have wonderful memories spanning many years. Jan is now at peace and is with Ed.
