It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Jan Cecil Strom (Galesburg, Illinois), who passed away on July 16, 2024, at the age of 71, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Jan Cecil Strom to show support.

As we bid Jan farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Jan is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.

He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, Gerald Strom and Beatrice Strom; his wife Wanda "Winks" (McCormick); his sons, Joshua (Alison), Jedidiah (Rebecca) and Jacob (Diana); and his grandchildren, Maxwell and Charlotte "Charlie".

Memorials may be made to Wounded Warriors or to Folds of Honor.
