Jeanette (Jan) was born on 10/5/1937 in Highland, Illinois to George and Cora Santner.
She is survived by her brother, George Santner, Jr. (Marilyn), her sister Paulette Gillum (Jim), daughters Michelle Yelland, Renee Gantt (Billy), grandson Jackson Gantt (Amber), great grandson Ezra Gantt and dearest friend, Howard Gilbert.
She was preceded in death by her husband Billy R. Harrison, and sister, Alice Matsuda.
Jan was a vibrant loving and strong person who faced life’s ups and downs with faith character, and a marvelous smile. In reality that was simply Jan wringing the most out of life. She played hard, loved with great conviction, and answered only to her Lord. Her life was full of challenges. All of which she met and resolved with inner strength and prayer. Yes, she was a role model of strength. She was a natural leader, and organizer as evidenced by her church groups, her golf groups, ministry to others and her family. Throughout all of life she was a joy to be around. May she find a fun golf group in heaven.
Jan leaves us having lived a full and fruitful life. There is no doubt she will be missed by all who knew her.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer’s Association in Jan’s memory.
