Read MoreAunt Jane was kind, fun, intelligent, and always interesting to talk to. She suffered many losses in her life, yet kept her positive attitude and lived a life of gratitude. She was blessed by many friends in Grand Rapids who showered her with love and grace. I am so grateful.

I knew Jane and Bob from the accordion ensemble. Since I lived in the same area as they did at the time, I would also see them once in a while at Meijer and we would stand and chat for a while. I loved their sweet dispositions and how friendly they both were! So sorry to hear of Jane's passing... Thoughts and prayers to family and fellow friends at this sad and difficult time...
