Condolences to Jan’s family. We first got to know Jan as a regular borrower at the Swan Hill Library where we enjoyed chatting with her about books and life. In recent years she volunteered as a Storytime Volunteer which she really enjoyed doing up until only a few weeks ago. We will miss her dedication, positive attitude and friendship. Rest In peace, Jan. - Staff & volunteers, Swan Hill Regional Library.
