Janet Lenci was born August 11, 1934 in Redwood City, California to Walter ("Bud") and Frances ("Honey") Kellogg. She attended Sequoia High School in Redwood City, graduating in 1952. Jan’s college education took her to Stevens College in Columbia, Missouri and University of Southern California, where she received her teaching credentials. Jan’s first teaching experience was in East Los Angeles, teaching second and third grades combined, then returned to the Bay Area, living in San Francisco and teaching at Arundel School in San Carlos for two years. Jan met and married her husband Salvatore Lenci in 1962. Jan and Sal moved to Marin County, where they lived for six years. While there, Jan taught grades second, third and fourth. Before starting their family, they moved to San Carlos, and had two sons, Craig and Kent Lenci. Family, children, gardening, dance, golf and her coffee, bridge and bible study friends, along with life in Graeagle, brought great joy to Jan.
Jan was surrounded by her loving family when she passed February 9, 2016. She is preceded in death by her parents and her son, Kent. Jan is survived by her husband Sal, her sister Carole Tanklage, her son Craig and daughter-in-law Cheryl and seven grandchildren – Brent, Ryan, Taylor, Trent, Emily, Aaron and Jordan.
