We were saddened to read of Jan's passing (she was so young). We offer you all our sincerest sympathy.
We spent numerous hours together in the council chamber at ES - Jan contributed so much and it is great to see she was acknowledged for that work.
We hope you find comfort in sharing the many happy memories you have of times spent together.
Kindest regards
