I am so sorry for your loss. Jane was my Aunt. My mother was Dorothy Truesdell. I only got to be with Aunt Jane in person a handful of times, but I knew immediately that I loved her. I will always remember going to the races with her and the love she showed me when my own mom passed. You will all be in my prayers

I am so happy that I had the pleasure of knowing Jane, when she worked at SOURCECORP. A sweeter lady could not be found. Always a smile, never a complaint. My sympathies go to her family and friends. Especially to grandchildren Juli and James, I know how very much you'll miss your grandma....but she gave you so much of herself over the years, I know that her goodness has made positive impacts on your lives, and will continue to do so in the future. Hold your memories of her loving ways close, as they will be your comfort.

I am so very sorry we never got to see one another since childhood. I would have loved to reminisce.
My dad had always retained a great friendship with his cousin Wilson.
