Jan Price has left us.
Last night we received an email from Doug, Jan Price’s brother, that she had passed away on Thursday evening after a week’s stay in hospital in Thomaston, Georgia. Oh, Jan, we shall miss you so! Your wonderful blogs about the Funny Farmers, your photos of the sweet animals you sheltered for so long. Our letters to one another over so many years.
Mr. Doug, her brother, wrote to several of her acquaintances because he found a letter in her things addressed to him, and that’s how we found out. Mama had called Jan last week and found Mr. Doug at her house and so had a long chat with him. But Jan was expected home at that time.
Our hearts are heavy right now.
Love and condolences for her family and the wonderful animals she loved, some gone, but never forgotten. I hope so that they find a new home with Mr. Doug.
I’m so sorry to hear this news. Condolences to you all, and to Jan’s family.
Well, today’s blog has the website that Mr Doug sent to see her obituary. Yes, it was a shock.
That is sad. The virus is sending lots of humans to OTRB. I know all the pets at the rainbow will welcome her with luving arms and take her under their wings and present her with a star so she can twinkle in the night sky. Big hugs for her family and the kitties that she left behind.
Oh, such a wonderful picture of Jan in the heavens. We can then all visit her on starry nights.
We are heartbroken to hear this. Jan was one of our first blogging friends and her encouragement and kindness will never be forgotten. Thank you for letting us know. We too hope the remaining Funny Farmers find a home with Mr. Doug.
I will be contacting him again and will try to find out if he can be contacted by anyone wishing to do so. We, too, are so very sad to lose such a dear friend.
Oh LouLou – this is so sad ! We missed her blog, but understood her desire to just cut back a bit. How sad for her family, including her beloved Funny Farmers and all of the blogosphere – but imagine how many of them rushed to meet her as she crossed the Bridge.
Please do let us know what you hear from her brother, and what about the Funny Farmers. Purrs to you and your Mama, as I know they were close friends.
Yes, mama is very sad and was so enriched by Jan’s friendship. A very unique heart and such sweet animnals and a funny, lovely blog. We missed it when she stop blogging.
We posted it on the Cat Blogosphere too. We were shocked and so sad to learn this news. Jan was one of our first ever blogging pals. We shall miss her wit and humor but we’ll remember her always.
Yes, we loved her blogs and missed them so much when she stopped because of health problems. Thank you so much for contacting the Cat Blogosphere.
I am terribly shocked and saddened at this news. Jan was such a kind and caring person and will be very missed.
I knew she had been ill for some time and had suffered several accidents in the past months, but had no idea how ill she was.
We didn’t exchange emails on a regular basis but it was always a pleasure to receive them.
Oh, I am sorry for our loss. This wonderful, witty and kind-hearted woman and her funny, adorable animals. It was a shock but her obituary website is in today’s blog, thanks to her brother.
We did not know and feel heavy hearted. We loved visiting the Funny Farmers. She will be missed
It is just too sad. I believe you can write her brother at Jan’s original email but I’ll find out.
That is very sad news. Sending hugs.
I’ll ask her brother if it’s okay to send emails to him.
Oh good heavens! This is such a shock. She has been so loved by so many that this will upset everyone.
We thank you for passing on this sad news to us all.
It was a shock and yes, beloved by many. Such a dear woman.
Oh gosh, God no. This I did not expect, nor want to hear. I am so sorry for her family’s loss, and the loss to our community. What a wonderful lady that will be so dearly missed.
Gentle purrs
ERin & Mrs H
We are still shocked by this. She was ill but we had not idea about the severity. So terribly sad, everyone.
