Miss you Janey! You are alive in my heart and I think about you all the time! Love you, Justina

I'm so sad to hear of Jane's passing. She was a gifted artist and designer who I had the priveledge of working with on my first fabric with P&B Textiles. She was a blessing!

I am so sad to learn of Jane's passing. She was a wonderfully caring person. May her memory be a blessing.

I am so shocked to hear of Jane's passing. 20 years ago when my family and I moved to San Francisco, Jane was a kindred spirit. We spent many hours together with our boys Elan and Henry.

Jane you will always be a bright blossom in my heart!

I will miss the wonderful way we could be New Yorkers together in this politically correct neck of the U.S. We understood each other, I was blessed to know her! She lives in my heart and I hear myself saying to her something I know she would get, "Can you believe this #$?!" Though never mean, we laughed about stuff that we both knew to be true but that others might carefully hem and haw about. I toast to her! And lucky me to have known her! Bless her family!
