Executive Director, Go Red For Women- Corpus Chrisit, TX

”I simply can’t remember when I have laughed so hard for so long.  We were delighted the way you drew the audience in by using the events of the weekend and added your unique brand of humor to them.  Many, many thanks for a wonderful time!  I was even thinking of you later in the evening last night and thought what makes you so good….besides the wonderfully humorous way you see things, but that your delivery and timing are impeccable!  Just great stuff! Take great care…keep us laughing…it’s a great gift you have!!!“

Pinnacle Health, Women’s Weekend

“I appreciated the opportunity to have a conference call with Jan and our P.R. person. Coupled with the materials I sent her she clearly did some research about Angela Hospice.   She had such a great mix of material, not only original but that everyone in the room could relate to.  While they were all women, there was quite an age range. And literally and figuratively – proof you could even have a Felician Sister in attendance – without offending her! Comments we heard from guests include: “Jan was the best comedian yet” (this was the 3rd year for this event) and “will I automatically get an invitation for next year’s event?” – nothing but favorable comments. In my work I know I can’t please all 600 people in the room – however this year – I feel like we did!  We – being Jan of course!  While we would not book the same comedian two years in a row we would consider her in the years ahead!”
