Not sure what to say?

Tommy, Sue, Liz, Casey and Colleen: I was lucky enough to stand for awhile under the welcoming umbrella that Jane offered in her capacity as a teacher and as the Mom of my very good friend. She was intuitive and compassionate with a generous spirit,a fabulous sense of humor and a great laugh. I am sure that all of you will be buoyed on Saturday, with the telling of both new and old stories by the many people who knew and loved her.

to Sue,Liz and TOM,i was so sorry to hear of Jane's passing. She was a nice lady and not to mention a terrific golfer. Please know you all are in our prayers and we are thinking of you often. Jack and Barbara Dolby
