About Janet Eileen Wismer Jago
Daily Local News Tuesday, July 1, 2008 Janet E. Funk of Downingtown
Janet Eileen Jago Funk, 69, went to be with Christ on Sunday, June 29, 2008, after her battle with cancer.
Jan was born on April 3, 1939, in Ambler, daughter of William and Ethel Jago.
She was a 1956 graduate of Upper Dublin High School and the Chester County School of Nursing, her greatest accomplishment. She was also a graduate of Outward Bound, North Carolina, which was her greatest challenge.
In her life she was not only a wonderful wife and mother but a lifelong friend to many, artist, nurse, business owner, missionary, giver and lover of life and fun.
She painted the mural of the Pyle Farm hanging in the Brandywine Hospital and was an ARC Christmas card artist.
She began Jan's Cans, which has inspired the donation of thousands of gift-wrapped coffee cans filled with personal items and distributed through the Salvation Army, where she has also served dinners.
Jan traveled to Russia, India, Peru and Europe for mission trips and was seen frequently at Christian Aide Mission or the Josh McDowell Warehouse. She was the inspiration for the Oma Foundation that is being created to encourage kids, youth and parents to develop spiritually and as leaders, and to create giving and serving projects to help those in need.
Serving her Savior was her greatest honor.
