Jane was a very special person in my life during my childhood. I have such fond memories of her kindness toward me. She was an angel to me during a very difficult time after losing my father to cancer at an early age. I think of her often and look forward to seeing her again one day. May God bless you and your family Terri. I pray you are doing well.

There isn't a time I can remember where Jane wasn't smiling. In recent years when were visiting Ohio I looked forward to going to her church. She would always make sure Terri would push her wheelchair to me so we could greet and she would always reach out her hand to hold mine. Heaven is richer today with that smile. Her smile always was evidence of her love for Jesus and all those around her.
