Jan Fuller… just her name brings a smile to my face and heart. Jan was a lot of things to me, beginning as a co-worker at Northwest Arkansas Urology. Our friendship quickly became much more than just that of co-workers. She and I shared many similar interests and I admired her for many, many things. I loved her stories of her colorful past. I met her beloved father, son and daughter, as well as her grandbabies. She loved the spelling of my name was the same as her daughter. Sheri… I know that there is a huge gaping wound in your heart where your mother had a special place. Remember the wonderful memories that you have. In the days to come, take them out and treasure them.
Jan… I love you and will treasure the memories you have given me!
So many times in the last couple of years I would remember something that I need to call Jan about, but because of her illness I couldn’t. This last year I really missed not hearing from her or getting a card on my Birthday, she never forgot in all the 40+years that I have been lucky enough to be her friend. I sent her one for her Birthday even though she might not remember me, I still tried!!🥰 We had a lot of Great times together, worked together for many years, went through a lot of sad times too. Sherry, I am so sorry for your loss, please know you are in my thoughts & prayers and I LOVED your Mom so much. ♥️
Love Karen
Sheri and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I know how deeply you loved your mom and pray God will comfort you during this time.
Sheri, Sorry to hear about you mama. I miss her very much. For over 34 1/2 years she has been my very best friend, no one can replace her. She was a very special woman to me. She will be dearly missed by everyone. Your mom said that there was no one that could replace you (her daughter) or me because we took such good care of her when she needed something. God is taking care of her now. Remember the good times with your mom, that will get you through the hard times. God Bless you.
