   I’m so very sorry to learn of Jan’s passing. I have many fond memories of her through Girl Scouts when she served as the GS Cookie Chairperson and I was my daughter’s troop leader. Just such a kind and friendly lady! My sympathy and prayers to Jan’s family.

   I am so saddened by Jan’s passing. She was a lovely cousin with whom I shared many fun holidays when we were young. She was a great help to her parents and contributed so much to Girls Scouts. She loved her bike rides! It is hard to say goodbye. My sincere condolences to Jack and the family.

   I was shocked to hear of Janet’s passing. Janet worked as a homeworker for me for many, many years at Input Technology and she was a most dedicated and hard worker. My condolences to Jack, the kids and the grandkids. This breaks my heart.

   I was a Girl Scout neighborhood cookie manager with Jan from the whole time that she did it. We always enjoyed trying to guess what we had eaten at the training. They finally had figured out how to give her food without having citrus in it. We talked about our problem or strange troops cookies managers. We could speak on the phone for a hour or more. She also worked for me giving tests to preschool children in the Webster Grovers School District. When I told all the ladies gave me feedback telling how much they liked her and liked how funny she was. We all enjoyed when we went for lunch at Dewey’s Pizza in Webster; When Sidney was with her, we thoroughly enjoyed her. I always looked for Jan’s red car. During this time when she was getting tests and the problems after the biopsy, we emailed back and forth. Somehow she heard about her being prayed at my Prayer Group; though I didn’t give her name, someone in the group shared with a friend or relative. I’m very sorry for your loss. As I watched her Mass, I was so happy to see all of the family, especially Joe and Jennifer talking bout her mom. When our Webster group goes for lunch, someone will get the Hawaiian pizza that Jan always got. We have lots of great memories.
