Jane Pinder Obituary
Orlando Magic's biggest fans who never missed a televised game. Jane received her nurse's training at Grady Hospital in Atlanta and joined the Army Nurse Corps. She later transferred to the Air Force and was promoted to Chief Flight Nurse during WWII. She flew many missions across the Atlantic but was most proud of her contribution on D-Day+3 when she helped evacuate the injured troops from the front line. Jane's military career was punctuated with numerous accommodations and medals. She was a longtime member of Asbury United Methodist Church in Maitland and served in every office. She was presented the "Extra Mile" Award for her dedication to the church. She is preceded by her son, Barry, and her husband, Samuel H. Pinder. Jane is survived by her brother,
Marion Mobley; sister, Agnes Washington; daughter, Dr.
Flora Ann Pinder (David Payne); son, Samuel H. Pinder, Jr. (Susie); grandchildren,
Angela Payne, Douglas Pinder and Stephen Pinder; and numerous family members. There will be a memorial service on October 20, 2007 at 2PM at Christ Episcopal Church, 151 W. Church Avenue, Longwood, FL. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to Christ Episcopal Church, 151 W. Church Avenue, Longwood, FL 32750.

The time I remember most about Elizabeth (the name by which I knew her) was when she came to Japan with her family - Sam, Flora Ann, Sammy and Barry when Flora Ann was 12, I believe. We went out to the beach, very primitive, but it provided a good place for the Pinder children and for our Mobley boys. It gave Elizabeth and me a chance to walk on the beach alone and enjoy talking about things ladies like to talk about. I remember that it was amazing how well we all got along in a house with only two bedrooms. One of the times I treasure most is when Mack and I attended a Friday night Bible Study/Prayer Meeting with Elizabeth and Sam. Sam had returned from a business trip early to be there. It gave us a chance to get into Sam's and Elizabeth's hearts, to see how real their faith was. I appreciate you, Flora Ann and Sammy, looking after your mom as you did.
God bless you all.

Dear Pinder Family,
I knew your Mom and Grandmother as my Aunt Elizabeth. My Mother, Carolyn Agnes Mobley Washington, is her surviving sister. She is 84 years old now and unable to travel to Florida for the Memorial Service. I can remember many special ocasions when the Mobley Family would all get together at Grandma and Grandaddy Mobley's house in Thomson. Those were great times. Aunt Elizabeth was a very special lady and we were always excited when her family was able to come. I recall that you guys lived in many different places while your Dad served in the Air Force so it was always treat to see you.
Know that your Mom was loved by all of us and we will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
Much love,
Betty and Jerry Carter

Jane Pinder was a sister of my father, Robert S. Mobley. I always knew her as Aunt Elizabeth and was not aware she was known as "Jane" until a few years ago when I received a Christmas card and she had used Jane Pinder in the return address. She was so proud and loving of her family. May God bless them.

Jane Pinder was my Mother's older sister, she was quite a woman, serving in the military when ladies were a rarity, especially women officers. She always had a smile on her face and was a very open and loving person. We had not kept in close touch because of the distance between us, but I kept up with her by the letters we received from her daughter Flora Ann. God Bless and keep you "Aunt Elizabeth!"

I knew Jane Mobley Pinder longer than almost anyone in the family, for I am her surviving brother, Rev. Marion ("Mack")Mobley, age 80. "Elizabeth," as I always knew her, was my idol, my mentor, my Angel of Splendor. I knew her best for how she treated me at all times, always seeking my best, never allowing me to settle for the mediocre. I will miss her until we meet again in Heaven. I pray that our entire family will be there to praise God through out eternity.
