    We love you Grandma. Never will forget all the great times growing up and how you kept all the family members coming back to Hillsdale for reunions. We think about you every day.
    Love Cora and Joe

    When I married Quentin and became a Dunigan I always looked forward to the family get togethers, because I knew if Jan was there it would be a good time. For several years we’ve golfed together and renewed our friendship. We referred to ourselves as sisters. I miss you!

    Jan, my cousin in law. I have always thought so much of you. You were always so nice to me. Shellie and I would babysit for the kids. My mom and I would do macrame with you. You will be missed. You were a beautiful lady that loved her kids and all family.

    What a beautiful person inside and out. Ramon absolutly adored all his girl cousins. He was the only boy cousin in the family. They were all his ‘sisters’ and he felt so close to all of them. All were so hospitable. The family reunions were always a highlight. You could always count on Janet and all the Dunigans to be there and have loads of hugs and kisses and a great time. Sure miss them all. Thanks for being such a great welcoming family to Ramon and all of us. Love you all. Jan was a real ‘gem’ as Ramon would say.
