Tiffany, Taylor, Cason and myself would like to share our condolences with our entire family. We are sorry we are not able to be there in this difficult time but send out our prayers to each of you. Baby Jane was a wonderful person and our family will miss her deeply. Tiffany said she guessed Baby Jane was probably sitting in heaven with Blackie. I hope so, I think she would be OK with that.
