Jan Jan

Dedicated to my dear loving father. My name is Janet. My father's nickname for me was Jan Jan.
He always encouraged me to reach my goals.

Jan Jan
you stand don't you sit
you must have a plan
you have true grit

Jan Jan
you have a lot of wit
there is no choice other than
you must commit

Jan Jan
in time I must admit
from where you began
things will work out for your benefit

Jan Jan
just do it
become a number one fan
don't quit

Jan Jan
words of my father today
you are everyone's number one fan
he would proudly say

My true self is free. I cannot be contained.

I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.

My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me. Jim Valvano
