I first met Jan and her sisters when our mothers shared a room at Syracuse Home. During this time we shared many happy hours - the Golden girls treated my Mom like part of their family. Even as she battled with cancer I never saw Jan without a smile on her face - such an amazing positive person. I am sad to hear of her passing - sending much love, prayers and best wishes to Jill and family.
