He was educated at St. Lawrence University, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology and a Master of Divinity degree while there. He also pursued further graduate studies at Harris Manchester College at Oxford University as well as post graduate work at Boston and Brown Universities. He retired from the Unitarian Universalist ministry after a career of nearly fifty years having served congregations in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Texas, Florida and New Mexico. He and his wife, Lorna, have been married over fifty-three years and are the proud parents of four grown children and nine grandchildren.
Jan has loved writing poetry and prose all his life. He also inherited his parents’ love of music and has sung in many stage musicals as well as singing in a capella groups and choruses. His love of humor has served him well over the years considering the vicissitudes that often come with parish ministry. His passion has been people and the task of assisting them to find peace and love in their lives. It is hoped this volume will bring joy and insight to its readers as well as being an avenue of wonder and challenge for all.ver menos
