Jan was an employee of S. Schwab Co., where she worked as a seamstress for 28 years. She loved spending time with her family, going to ceramic class, Fort Hill football games, Tom Jones concerts and eating sweets before the main course. Jan was a great cook. Taking walks in the evenings with her sisters made her happy.

Dancing with her love, Claude, was the joy of her youth. Jan enjoyed vacations and trips to amusement parks. If there was fun to be had, Jan would be in the middle of it. Jan was someone who loved to laugh and be silly and enjoy the light-hearted moments of life. She and Claude bowled in the White Oaks league for many years.

In accordance with her wishes, Jan will be cremated.
