Thinking about all of you during this difficult time. We have so many wonderful memories of Jan and the entire Hiemenz Family living “next door”

Our sympathy to Bill & Jan’s family. They have a beautiful family and wonderful kids. We will all miss Jan. She was always so nice to us and Her Children & Grandchildren adored her. May she be blessed & rest in peace. She did good work.

Bill, Chad, Craig, Holly and Heidi:
My sincere sympathy to all of you and your families. Jan was a very special friend who helped me so much when I lost my husband. We had so much fun in Montevideo with the Mud Pack friends, and that friendship continued when she moved to the St Cloud area. I will miss her positive attitude and her very special friendship. God bless all of you.
