    My life was truly enhanced the past 35 years because of my friendship with Jane. She was a “woman of substance” and one classy lady. She guided me through business and personal transactions and was always available. I have always been in awe of this wonderful lady.
    Your family is a testament to your knowledge and compassion. RIP

    So thankful for my aunt Jane. She always made me feel welcome and could truly make the best of difficult situations. Our most recent conversations were full of great family history. She will be missed.
