Dearest Bill, Tammy, Dana & Family,
I remember when I was very young how you & Jana as well as Barbara & Nick were so much fun to be around. In retrospect it was amazing that all of you spent many special moments to entertain a child like me during a time when you all were dating. This was a good omen then for the lovely family that you & Jana would eventually have togeher.
Ryan & I remember you hosting a Family Reunion for us in your lovely home & we thought how wonderful it was to have both your daughters living nearby, far enough for privacy, close enough for comfort. You can’t get any nearer to perfection than that!
I thought of Jana today, just like I did the day of her passing and all the days after that. I know, Bill, that it is hard to look forward to the future with Jana no longer beside you. I also know that you wanted to spend the rest of your life with her. But you are both blessed, because she was able to spend the rest of her life with you!
Jana was a blessing and a treasure. Now that she is no longer with us on Earth, God will have her in His keeping and we all will always have her in our hearts. Jana will still be loved beyond words and missed beyond measure until each of us, in our own time, will be reunited again with loved ones & the wonders of Eternal Life in Heaven.
Blessings & Love to you all!

I’ve known Jana since she started dating my nephew Bill. She was, is such a bright happy person from the time we first met. I know that Jesus is holding out his arms to welcome her home. Know her family will miss her greatly, she has gone but her memory will live on forever in our hearts.
