To Jane's Family, Please accept my sincere condolences. I had the pleasure of meeting Jane and her Mom on a cruise my sister and I went on a couple of years ago that was sponsored by St. Joseph's Church. Jane was a delightful person, always upbeat and my sister, Jackie Weatherwax, who knew Jane from BLICO, thought fondly of her. Please know that she is in our thoughts and prayers. May she have eternal peace.
