Just got the new here today, 1/29/23 Broke my heart. Jan was my amazing business partner for 10 plus years and without her I would have not had the success we both had together. Everyone loved her quirky little quiet way of getting things done with 100% efficiency and accuracy. What an amazing and wonderful woman and person. Please keep me updated.
