Jan was my teacher when I attended Brighton High School. Our lives reconnected in our lose of soliders within the past few years. Jan is amazing! She has so much going on ALWAYS, but always has the time to involve herself in causes that grab her heart! This is just one of those many projects that she has given her heart, soul and time to. Jan... You amaze me always!! Love you most!

How can anyone study with the sound of clicking needles in the background?

Very nice and inspiring. May God bless everyone involved. Each US war brings some hope among the pain, heartache and turmoil.

Look at England, Germany and Japan. I hope that the greater Middle East can prosper in much the same fashion.

Thanks to these kind hearted people. Keep it up.

Great story and a great inspiration!

Hello!!! Knitting needles don't have to click anymore. They are pretty much noiseless. Keep up the good work.

email correction

If you would like to email Janalee, her correct email is:janalee.moncur@canyonsdistrict.org. The address in the article is incorrect.

Jan is such an inspiration to all she comes in contact with. She is an amazing person. It has been fun to join in and make scarves for Iraq. I'm thankful for the experience.

Thank you everyone for your generous contributions and support. You have made my dream come true.

These scarves have come from Logan, Paradise, Centerville, Richfield, South Jordan, West Jordan, Sandy, Holladay, Cottonwood Heights, Mount Olympus, Salina, Orem, Provo, Escalante, Tompic, St. George, Kanab, North Salt Lake, Kaysville, Layton, Idaho, Colorado, Florida, Northa and South Carolina, TN, Washington, AR, TX, CA, MN, OK, MO, VA.... Thank you thank you.
