Not sure what to say?

im so blessed to have had her in my life for two years every sunday i got to spend with her was a gift,ill miss u sooooo much ms.jane...cant wait to see u again,I LOVE YOU & THANK U FOR EVERYTHING!

The memorial service was a loving tribute to an inspirational woman. I delighted in the pictures of Jane's head turning, Hollywood gorgeous college years. Jane gave us so much; and through her activist roles she left a better place for us all.

Her spirit will live for ever. I had the privilege to spend quality time with her for many years. I always looked forward for our unique and enlighting meetings of the mind, it was special. May the "light" enrobe her and cherish her like her friends did.

It was a privilege to know Jane. She was someone who triumphed over adversity that none of us could imagine, to become a person of great depth and significance -- someone who mattered.

Jane and her friend, Susan Phinney Conrad, were ahead of their times on women's issues and inspired so many. I am so saddened to hear of her death.
