Born Janice Diane Ingraham on November 16, 1957, in Marshalltown, Iowa, she was the daughter of Gene and Ruth (Wirth) Ingraham. She grew up in Laurel and graduated from SEMCO High School in Gilman in 1976.
Jan married James "Jim" Anderson, on September 2, 1978, at Laurel United Methodist Church. They lived in Laurel, where they raised their two children. The two enjoyed being grandparents and traveling together and celebrated 36 years of marriage before Jim's passing in 2014.
In addition to being a wife and mother, Jan worked hard outside of the home. She dedicated several years to the bank in Laurel and in the administrative office at East Marshall schools, retiring in 2020. She also served as treasurer for the Laurel United Methodist Cemetery board and financial secretary at Laurel United Methodist Church.
Jan was a strong Christian and her faith was incredibly important. It was the very thing that got her through her six year battle with cancer. She was a longtime member at Laurel United Methodist Church.
More than anything else, Jan was immensely proud of her kids and grandkids. She loved attending all of her grandchildren's activities. She enjoyed attending Iowa State basketball games, the Big12 Tournaments and concerts, and watching the Game Show Network and Hallmark Movie Channel.
Janice also loved spending time with her friends, especially taking walks and going out to eat.
