Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. I’m sorry for your families loss. Please find comfort in the bible knowing that Jehovah God and Jesus Christ feel your pain and suffering that your going through. In Revelation 21:3,4 it talks about the time that Jehovah will wipe away every tear from our eyes and death will be no more. How we all need that time to come. I truly hope that that scripture give your families some comfort.

  2. I will always cherish Jan and mine’s relationship. A special closeness we both appreciated. We shared our most intimate thoughts and feelings with each other, knowing they would be safe. Our families were further intertwined thru Rachel and Chris (my son) friendship and then years later Rachel, Derrick and their children. Jan loved her family and was proud of all her children.
    Jan and I took several trips together thru the years. I think my favorite trip was one of the ones to
    Florida – White Russians were on our menu each evening!! We would sit, talk, laugh, cry, laugh…..
    I will miss our trips, our talks, our lunch dates, our highway adventures! I miss my friend………..I know I will see her again.
    The world absolutely lost a rare jewel when she was called home. ❤

  3. A very special and loved Sister will never be forgotten. Lots of wonderful memories. Her wedding, playing tennis with Mom and Dad watching and laughing. Black Friday shopping was a blast! We had the most fun when Momma came to join us! And the trip when Momma and I went with her to one of her PT Seminars and coming home, hwy 16 was so boring!!! That’s when Freddie Foofer emerged!!! All 3 of us laughed for at least 2/3rds of the ride home!! She became Janny Jolene -the richest woman from down in the sticks!!! Freddie Foofer will never forget her!!! I love my Sister and always will ❤️💜❤️💜❤️💜😭

  4. A constant smile, calm words of advice, a hug at just the right time. Those will always be my memories of Ms. Jan.
    Praying for strength and peace for all the family.

    Blessings,
    Neal
