This is not your ordinary obituary as Janet "Jan" was nothing but ordinary. To know her was to love her, she touched the lives of everyone she met. She had a heart of gold and was the most unselfish person. Sadly, Jan was called home on Jan. 30, 2015, after a long and hard fought battle with Parkinson's Disease. Jan was born in Pacific Grove, CA. Jan is preceded in death by her loving parents, Charles M. and Maude A. Robinson, Sr. She was the youngest of her siblings, Charles M. Robinson, Jr. and Nancy Rebber. Jan left home as a minor to travel to Tokyo, Japan, to work for the federal government where she met her then husband Claude R. Bissell (Buzz). Jan and Buzz moved back to California and laid down roots in Vacaville. Jan worked and retired from Travis Air Force Base. She has been a resident of Vacaville for 50 plus years. She is also preceded in death by her boyfriend of 20 plus years, Clifford Rayborn.

Jan was known for her quick wit, jokes and a smile that could light up the room. Her favorite pastimes were hitting up any casino, stopping at garage sales and flea markets as she was an avid antique collector. She also enjoyed reading, gardening, listening to music and watching the Kings, SF Giants, and 49er's.

She is survived by her beloved three nieces and five great nieces and nephews.

Per her wishes there will be no service. However, please raise a glass of white zinfandel in her honor and toast the good times you had with her. Our lives will never be the same without her.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Parkinson Foundation or your local animal shelter (her love for animals was amazing), or a trip to your local casino in her honor.
