Janie was a good, loyal friend. I will miss her so much= we shared a lot of memories. I am sure Darlene, Virginia, Dixie, Rockie and Bernie will miss her.
Bobby was a pillow of strength for her = her children and grand children are a joy to see and be with = she was so proud of them all. Her goodness will remain in my heart - I loved her. I know she is with God. God bless her family.

I admire a woman that was as strong as Jane. I wish I could be half the woman she was. She will be missed by us, but she has built her treasures in heaven.

Dear Bobby and family, I was so saddened to hear of Jane's passing into Heaven. She always had such a sweet spirit and kindness that drew me to her. I will treasure our times together. I will be praying for you all during this time. We will see her again. Sincerely, Laura Logue
