This will be the next to last "Whats up with Jan" blog. The final blog will be written after the Memorial service on Thursday.
There has been so much kindness extended to our family both when Jan was alive and now after she is gone that we are overwhelmed by everyone's loving and devoted attention to our needs. Veronica, Tyler and myself are very grateful for and appreciative of the support we have received during this very sad time for which there really is no adequate preparation. Jan loved this blog and the support she received through it. In parting, we extend her love to you, and wish you all-the grace of beautiful lives and the love of shared friendships that made this blog a place to come to when we were feeling down and needed the support of friendly souls to lift us up to more than we could be.
With love and gratitude always,
Jan(She would want her name to be here), Pat, Veronica and Tyler.

I hope you and Jan were able to save what was to be the final bouquets of PSC flowers. I am chagrinned that the original thread is gone. Here is what I have: http://photoshopcontest.com/boards/viewtopic.php?p=105935#105935
I just wanted to share them again... especially with any infrequent forum visitors. We at PSC love you, Pat. Even those of us who haven't had opportunity to get to know you very well yet. If there is anything at all that I can do that might help, please don't hesitate to ask!

My prayer for you is that you find peace in Jan's passing, and solace in one another. Please know that there are so many of us who would shoulder this for you, if we could.
in profound sympathy,

Thanks for sharing your journey. Through Jan's physical illness, many have recieved strength beyond words to reflect on the very meaning of living life to the fullest! Her story puts life in perspective for those of us who just pass away time in life not remembering to be so very thankful for each moment. Blessings to you, Pat, and your children.

Thompson Family,
There are no words to express all of the feelings Jan's friends have for your family - and yet, we try.
Thank you for sharing this deeply personal journey. You are wonderful to allow the rest of us a glimpse.
Jan lives on. I know this to be true.
I am grateful for your family and the generosity you have all shown to us. I pray your family will have the comfort you need in the upcoming days and months.
Thank you for sharing Jan. She is a miracle woman who worked miracles in "her kids", her family, and the people she met.
Love,
Jody Barton

Thank you all so much for sharing Jan with us. You have given us a gift beyond measure by allowing us to spend this time with you and your family. I will always remember Jan as a unique and special friend. She always extended herself far beyond her own borders and gave of herself wherever and whenever she could. I pray for peace and comfort for you and your family.
With love,

Dear Pat, Veronica and Tyler,
I want to thank you for sharing Jan's journey. Jan was such an inspiration to us all. This Blog has meant so much to me since I lived so far away. I wish I was there to help you more like I did when her journey began 8 years ago. I will be returning for the services on Thursday night.
God Bless You All,
Tami
