I will always remember Jane and her family who went to Sandy Island for decades. I always remember my mother's stories about meeting Jane and her family at Sandy Island in 1956.

Jane, you were always a welcoming presence at camp and I loved the twinkle you always had! When someone would mention the "Spirit of Sandy", you would come to my mind as one who really embodied that concept. You have been missed at Sandy the past few years, and will continue to be thought of often and with a smile!

What a life you lived Jane Russell Brown XO. What a privileged it was to meet and know you. You raised and nurtured and amazing family that are all wonderful humans that care and actively participate in making this world a better place. My condolences to your whole family. We are sending love to you all.

She will be missed. Such a wonderful person!

When Jane worked for the Red Cross in Greenwich, she would come to the TAG office to do the schedules and that's where we met. Over the years she worked with us, Jane became a friend to all. She had the best listening skills and I loved her stories about her family and New Hampshire. She will always remain in my heart as the very special woman she was, we had many laughs together, her independence was her trademark, and her beautiful smile made all near her feel so welcomed.
