With only a few hundred dollars in her pocket, she migrated to Toronto where she continued her career in computer programming at the Toronto Stock Exchange and for consulting companies. It was in Toronto where she met Gordon, then a graduate student at the University of Toronto. In 1968 they married and soon after in 1971, moved to New Zealand with their two oldest daughters. In 1977, by then a mother of four daughters, the family returned to Pinawa, Manitoba. In 1983, the family moved to Edmonton Alberta. When the girls were young Jan was a dedicated mother and volunteer; once her daughters were all in school she returned to her computing career and worked for a number of consulting companies in Canada and on one project in Australia. In 2000 she and Gordon semi-retired to Cumberland, PEI where they operated the Bird’s Eye View Bed and Breakfast until 2014. In 2016 they sold their PEI home and moved into Charlottetown.

Jan was a great lover of flowers, both in the garden and her home. If anyone wishes to send a condolence, a floral gift to a seniors home or a donation to a charity of your choice would be appropriate.
