To the family of Janice Gunnell: I just found out about her passing and my heart aches. I valued our friendship and hate that we had lost touch. Rest in Peace my friend. I think about you often.

Jan always made me laugh and we shared many common interests that we talked about often... her smart sense of humor and her spunkiness inspired me on bad days and made me smile on good days. No more pain, Jan. May your spirit fly through the universe.
