Gene and Family,
I was very sad to hear about Jane. Sue Dejansen and I used to visit her at the ranch during the 70's and 80's. May she rest in Peace.

Jim told me of Jane's passing this morning. I will be thinking of you. In conversations with your Mom she always seemed to think the world of Jane and her kids. My best to all of you.

Gene:

Our boys Zach and Ben remember when we had a few library books at the Nemo store, and Jane would pick out a book and read to them. It was a simple kindness that they will always take with them. Our thoughts are with you and your family.

Gene, There are so many great memories of spending time at your house starting in the 50's as kids. Jane always looked out for this city girl on our visits and my life is richer because of it. God bless.
