    We were shocked and surprised to see this. Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you. Take care of yourselves and each other. That’s what Jan would want you to do because she loved each of you.

    Jan I know you are sitting on the wall eating MrDay’s little green apples with Two salt shakers for when I get there. Treasure hunting and sitting in the dogwoods where no one can see us listening to all of us talking. So I will check every tree to see if you are there and wait for Breakfast with the whole family I told you I dreamed about. Until then, have a great time and keep them all going. Love you, Cuz
