Dear Frankie & Kirk, I just wanted to share a memory of Aunt Jane with you. Many moons ago we had a horse on the farm named Coco. One day Aunt Jane decided to ride Coco and take me with her. We rode all over the farm, and when we returned to the front yard she had the good sense to duck when we went under the clothesline. However, because I was smaller and couldn't see over her, the darn line practically hung me. We laughed over that many, many times! Anyway, my condolences to you and your loved ones. You're in my prayers.

Niver Family, I have such happy memories of Jane. We did alot together. Especially fun was the camping trip to Canada. We liked our Canasta and her and my Mom were Pros! They beat us everytime. Her hair and nails were always perfect, she was a Beautiful woman inside and out. Keep her good memories alive. Take care.

I have good memories of Aunt Jane from my childhood. she used to braid my hair. She often babysat me and jokingly asked if i would like to come live with her. I always said yes. It's sad that i didn't see much of her the last 20 years.
