Jan was a graduate of Portland Adventist Academy. In 1956, she and Fred Ray Stinnett were married in Portland. Jan worked in accounting and sales at Continental Can Company for over 40 years. In her retirement, she volunteered at care centers and nursing homes, and she and Fred continued to enjoy traveling, having visited Hawaii, Alaska, and the Panama Canal during cruise vacations, as well as other memorable trips together. Jan enjoyed art and music, played piano and instilled a love of music in her son. She also enjoyed doing fine linen needlepoint work, and her pieces were treasured by her family.
Mrs. Stinnett was preceded in death by her husband Fred in 2018, and by her two sisters. She is survived by her son Jim Stinnett of Gresham, and by numerous nieces and nephews.
Jan will be privately laid to rest with Fred at Willamette National Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations to either Doernbecher Children’s Hospital or the Oregon Humane Society would be greatly appreciated.
