Jana loved the Lord, her family, and friends.  She was like most grandmothers, she cherished her grandchildren and keeping them was the highlight of her life.  Jana loved keeping kids, in general, that was probably her favorite hobby.  She was also very creative when it came to arts and crafts.  Jana enjoyed making decorations for her classrooms, Christmas ornaments, and flower arrangements.  When her daughter, Kendal, got married, she made all the decorations for her wedding.

She was preceded in death by her sister, Perri Liles Ingram; other relatives.
