Very sad to hear of the passing of my ome Jan. My condolences to tante Nelly, Ellen, Barney and his grandchildren. I have many good memories growing up with ome Jan from back in the day in Brantford. A very fun and quick witted man who will be missed by many. To tante Nelly, I hear you are coping well being strongly rooted in your faith and believe in God. I was happy to hear that. R.I.P ome Jan.
