Dear Jean and family,
I am so very sorry to hear about Jane’s passing! It doesn’t seem like I should be reading about my former student’s deaths. My memories of “the twins” go back to my first years of teaching at North High when I was only a few years older than my students. Then we reconnected through my mother’s care at Summit Elder Care. My family also loved to visit with you both as we enjoyed the delicious food at Doocies!
Our deepest sympathy to all your family. May all your wonderful memories together bring you comfort and peace.

Jeannie & family, my deepest sympathies & condolences for this huge, huge loss. Janie was an effervescent sparkle, 24/7! During our many years of close friendship, she was never sad or down. She lit up every room she walked into...a force to reckon with!! The memories are many, each as precious as the next. We shared so many laughs, tears, sorrows & rejoicing. She will be terribly missed! Her generosity, compassion & energy surpassed all boundries. Her love for life, family, friends & most of all, for her Lord & Savior, was beautiful, contagious & immeasurable! It will be difficult to learn to live with this devastating loss, but I keep picturing her worshipping at the feet of her Savior with all that energy & effervescent sparkle...pain free!!! I will miss you deeply, my dear friend, but I will certainly see you on the other shore! Thank God! Love you Janie girl!

Auntie Jane ,
You were a HUGE PART of my childhood and adult life. As a child , I remember the places that you and Auntie Jean would take me. From Weeping Willies , trips to Spag’s , beaches and driving in your cool convertible. Oh, and who can forget the sleepovers at Nana and Papas house. As I grew older, you taught me the meaning of hard work . From Brick Oven Bakery to Dooci’s Deli. Then there was our short time working together on Shrewsbury Street at the veggie stand.
You were there when my Nick was born and came with a HUGE YELLOW BUNNY half the size of me !!!
The one thing I will NEVER FORGOT is your generosity . You were always so giving in so many ways.❤ Your love of our Lord Jesus Christ was and always will be inspiring to ALL. You were a TRUE GEM and I will never forget the memories I hold in my heart FOREVER. I LOVE YOU !!!!!!! My Special Godmother

Auntie Jane, although I only knew you for a little over 8 years, I appreciated your joy, sparkle, and fun energy every time I saw you. You always made sure to make me feel special and welcomed and a part of the family. I loved our talks about religion and loved how you always made sure to ask how my mom was. A special sparkle gone too soon. Rest in peace. XOXO
