To Jan’s family (there are many),
I remember Jan from way back in the 60’s?,70’s? She was married to Dayton Starkey, right? They lived in that huge house by the Irle school. Names slip my brain but I remember Judy, Larry and Gary, and they had an older sister, Sandy maybe?
I remember when she married Neal. She definitely had a personality all her own. We visited her in the nursing home every time we went up to see Dale. She will be missed!
