Janest Kay Cornell

Jan was always a fun spirited, feisty girl as a child until the day she died.

At 20 years old, she married the love of her life Gary Cornell who preceded her in death in 2016. They had three sons together and were married for more than 40 years.

Jan worked at Walker and Ericson Elementary as an instructional aide for several years helping autistic children. She then helped with the family business until she retired.

Jan could always make anyone smile, even during difficult times. She loved her family more than anything and never missed a game her sons and grandchildren played. Jan was a true social butterfly, with so many wonderful friends, some who she knew for more than 50 years. She made a deep impact on so many lives and will be missed greatly.

Jan is survived by her mother Maldetta; three sons and their wives/partner Ronnie and Sherri; Robbie and Tara; Ryan and Leni; grandchildren, Ava and Jack. All these people she loved and touched deeply each day of her life.

Please join us celebrating her life at the El Camino Memorial located at 5600 Carroll Canyon Rd. San Diego, CA 92121 at 1pm on Friday, April 28th.
