    Hi kirbi just wanted you to know once again how sorry I am for the loss if your mother. But what an inspiration she has been to me. Jan has experienced such sadness in her life that no one should have gone through in an entirety but she always got up and lived life . I met jan through Terri and loved her immediately. Please know you are in my prayers constantly I continue to enjoy your posts on Facebook and I believe you have your mothers spirit because you appear to be as uplifting and amazing as your mother was.
    May God continue to bless you and your family
    With warmest regards Dorothy

    God bless and prayers for the family. I know she was loved by many! I had the pleasure of having her as my client before she was diagnosed. We shared some laughs together! It’s always hard losing a loved one, but even harder knowing she loved many herself, and touched so many hearts! It was thoughtful of her to leave letters to her kids and grandchildren. RIP Jan.

    Kirby and Zack, your Mom was one of the strongest women I’ve ever known. She endured more than she deserved, and raised three beautiful children. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May our loving Father wrap your family in his arms providing comfort at this time.
