Jane Maughon Obituary
Jane Moncus Maughon passed away at the age of 76 after a long battle with cancer. Her faith was strong and she is at peace in her soul.
Jane grew up in Gadsden, Alabama. She was a generous and loving person. Jane was valedictorian of the 1965 Class of Gadsden High School and continued her passion for learning throughout her life. She attended Auburn and Mercer Universities. She worked her entire career as a pharmacist at DeKalb Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Donald Cook; parents Randal and Hazel Moncus; and two brothers, Jack and Jerry.
She is survived by the family of Donald Cook, by cousins of her parents' families, and by many special friends.
Her presence will be missed and her memory will be treasured by all who knew her. A service will be held at a later date to be determined.

In loving memory of a dear friend. Jane was truly a shining and guiding light to me. She exhibited such strength and courage in her journey and showed me that you could still find the joy, no matter the circumstances. She will be missed beyond measure.

Jane was a very special person to me. When I started working as a hospital pharmacist, she was my mentor even though we were the same age. She was one of the smartest and sweetest people that I know. She would stand up for the things that she thought was right and I admire her for that. She fought a hard fight and kept a positive attitude. She will be missed!
