Jane G. Hammerbeck

In loving memory of my grandmother. I believe that I have a lot of her in me and that makes me happy to know a piece of her lives on. She always fascinated me with her ability to use the computer(she could have tought me a thing or two), her love of crafts, and how active she stayed in her life. Further, I owe my love of the theater, trashy romance novels(she gave me my first Harlequin novel), and strange jewelry to her. Lastly, I admire how much time she gave of herself through...

In loving memory of a wonderful person. Jane gave me her dancing shoes several years ago and I am still wearing them and think about her often when I put them on. I also knew her from my classes and SNUG meetings at USF, and our exercise classes with Trish. I just wish I had seen more of her in the
last few years when I drifted away from these activities due to our own medical problems. We will love her always! Andy & Nona Evans

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I danced with Jane and Charlie many times and and have known them probably since she moved to Tampa. She gave me some of her special square dance outfits and 2 super crenolins (sp). When I wear them which is often I think of how nice she was to me. I worked with her at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center and we always gave a big hug to each other whenever we worked the same performance. I will miss seeing her. Give Charlie a big hug for me.

Jane will be greatly missed by the SeniorNet community within the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at USF. Jane was an active and caring volunteer for this organization for many years. Her passing is a terrible shock to all of us, and we extend our deepest and sincerest condolences to Mr. Betts, Jane's sons and their families. May it give you some solace to know that she was greatly appreciated and held in high esteem.

We and immediate family members spread your ashes on the Pond at your home in Lutz Florida this afternoon. You were missed by all! Duane
