Jane was my mother's (Carol Zinn) cousin. I had the pleasure of meeting her in person once while she still lived in Wildwood, NJ. She phoned my mother almost daily and I often spoke to her as well. She was like a "buddy" to me! I would buy video games and DVDs for her on Amazon and have them shipped to her as she didn't have the internet. My family's thoughts are with Tom and Marilyn, and thank you, Tom, for keeping us posted on her condition in her final days.

Tom and Marilyn,
I am so very sorry to know that Jane is no longer with us. She was a Fantastic Lady that I will never forget. I loved sitting talking to her and listening to her stories of Allentown. She will be missed more then you know. I think Jane and Deb are catching up on the last 2 years.
Rest in Peace my Friend.

We were sad to read about the death of your mother. Our condolences. We had not seen her in many many years but my sister and I always thought about her and the both of you when discussing the Bretz family. Sincerely, cousins Alyce and Joyce
