Jan graduated from Las Cruces High School in 1980. Jan married the love of her life, Bruce E. Campbell on June 3rd, 1983 in Artesia, New Mexico. They were blessed to spend 42 loving years together and together they raised 5 children. Bruce and Jan enjoyed dancing, music concerts, and spending time fishing and boating at the lake.
Jan worked in various secretarial and technological support positions over the years, such as U-Haul and Cox Communications. However, Jan preferred her favorite job of caring for her husband, children, and home.
Jan enjoyed learning new crafts, organization, music, reading romance novels, watching various crime shows, hosting parties, and raising dogs.
