Her family was her life and making memories was something she cherished most. Grandma Jan wouldn't miss any birthday party, game, concert, or any other event the grandchildren were involved in.
Jan was known for her videos and pictures. She wanted to capture EVERY special memory, one being playing "Grandma Santa" and making every holiday, birthday and anniversary special.
