Jane Marie BRAND

BRAND, Jane Marie 58, passed away peacefully on January 4, 2018 at Peppi's House Inpatient Hospice Center (TMC) in Tucson, Arizona, after a brief illness. Jane was born in Tucson on January 11, 1959 and was preceded in death by both parents, Lois Springer (from Kansas) and Richard Brand (from Illinois). Jane graduated from Howenstine High School and went on to Beacon Group where she was an employee for many years. Jane grew up to be a free-spirited woman who lived life to the fullest and brought tremendous happiness, joy, and laughter to the lives of everyone she met. Jane had boundless energy and physical strength and loved dance and music with all her heart. She will always be remembered for her endless desire to live, love and laugh. In her short life she was able to overcome many personal challenges and obstacles. She embraced these as opportunities and lived her life to the fullest. Jane was a teacher by heart, if not by training. Her exuberance for life has left us all honored to be her students. In lieu of flowers, please donate your time or money to the National Association for Down Syndrome. There will be a Celebration Service for Jane, Thursday, February 1, 2018 at St. Cyril Church of Alexandria at 4725 E. Pima St, Tucson at 10:30 a.m. Arrangements by BRING'S BROADWAY CHAPEL.
