lordevilvenom asked: According to Gary Lucas, yes, Jan is still alive. He undoubtedly has her address, though I doubt he'd give it up.

I don’t think so either. I think he values Jan too much that he would just give her address away to a random stranger.

dharmabrats asked: Is jan still alive? I'm in the area round about where they lived I think I don't know for sure though, I'd love to visit her

That is a very good question. I’m pretty sure that she’s still alive and well. Just like Don, she probably lives a very reclusive life.

My advise is if you wish to visit her or send her a letter is to attend any tribute shows or exhibitions of Don’s paintings. There may be a source there that knows Jan personally and might be able to provide you with her address, of course that’s if she is okay with visitors or mail.
