A beautiful lady both inside and out. I know that she is up in Heaven with the love of her life, Lee, and she is just so happy to see him again. May she RIP and my thoughts and prayers for her family.

Jane was a life long friend, one of my first memories was of her being one of my first Sunday School teachers. I have memories of her and her sister singing together and their father playing the organ in church.
My father married Jane and Lee, which was his last wedding before he died. Over the years Lee and Jane were a couple that I always admired for their love and dedication to the Lord. Through the years I often looked to them for advice and council and Jane was someone who I felt very close too. I was so glad that we were able to visit with her twice in the days before her passing.
