Jan, our heartfelt condolences go out to you. We just read the Winneconne News ( a bit late I’m afraid) and read about Bill. He seemed so strong the last time we saw you and Bill in church that it came as a surprise. Trust your faith, family, and friends during this difficult time...we will keep you in our prayers

It's hard to understand why people are taken from us, but, Jan, find comfort in knowing you were a special part of a well-lived Life.
