A Consummate Educator
Jan was my colleague at Ursuline Academy for a number of years. I so counted on her work ethic and compassionate responses to students. I likewise on her good advice when problems arose. She took pride in her work, and kept the welfare of her students top on her list. Rest in peace, Jan.
Friend and colleague
Jan was such a wonderful guide, friend and mentor to me as a new teacher at UA and again when I became a counselor. I so appreciate all her wisdom, support and companionship.
