Jan was a special education and fourth grade teacher and spent the majority of her nearly forty-year career with Jenks Public Schools. Her students loved "Mrs. Wilt" because of her outgoing personality, her love for children, and her exotic classroom creatures. Jan loved to travel with her family and was able to experience many countries throughout the world. She enjoyed spending time at the family cabin at Ft. Gibson Lake and was an avid OU football fan. She also loved decorating her house year round for every holiday and special event especially Halloween and Christmas.
