For those of you who knew or know Jan, I am sure you are missing her as much as I. For those of you who don't know her, I strongly recommend that you read some of her (Top-Notch) poetry. She was and still is a fan favorite to me and no doubt to others. Missing her dearly.

I was wondering about a friend of ours That has often come to mind A lovely poetess by all means She was always nice and oh, so kind Her stories were so delightful She would constantly make me laugh Especially, when she wrote about herself Or about her better half She wrote some really great poetry Some she wrote, well, just for kicks Her sense of humor really glowed When she wrote her lim-er-icks So, I was wondering if something happened Or, did something sadly go wrong Because it surely would be nice to see her again In the Soup where she belongs I pray, I hope... for heaven's sake That Jan is fine and doing well Because I know that down and deep inside That Jan's got... just so much more to tell *Dedicated To: Jan Allison

aww Charles I have just come across this gem and Victor is totally correct I had a rollercoaster of a ride with mum from June when i was told she was at end of life, she battled on until November and 2 weeks later her little sister died - been incredibly difficult for me on so many levels but I hope now I am coming to terms with the loss. thanks for caring so much about me:-) making this a massive fave:-) hugs and hugs again Jan xx
