My deepest sympathy to the McNeill family.

Jane was a special friend for many years in Pt. La Vista and our special times at Garden Club.

May God Bless you and wrap his loving arms around each of you. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

I have known the family for years, as a kid I grew up hanging out at their house with Bill all the time. I grew up the next street over and Jane was always nice and courteous to me. I am very sad to hear she passed and send my condolences to the entire family. She was way to young to leave this earth.

Uncle Wyatt,Bill,Bob,Cindy and all younger ones, I know none of us can believe Aunt Jane is gone. I am so sorry for the loss that you feel. But you know you are not alone. We are all feeling the loss of Aunt Jane's mighty force! We are so blessed with many awesome memories. How about Aunt Jane communing with nature. You remember, her up close and personal relationship she had with squirrels. Or how much she loved Lydia, Susan's pig. Plus the many wonderful dogs,our favorite being Beauregard of Pt.La Vista.
Her organizational skills, keeping up with all the animals, kids coming and going, and Uncle Wyatt's crazy schedule. And doing all this, putting up with all this because she loves you all so very much. And what so many of us think of as her best attribute... her cooking!!!!! And best of all when she would share her recipes. Aunt Jane will live on every time a Strawberry Cake is made. And be remembered sweetly as we enjoy the sweet cake. Or Steak night and looking forward not to the steak but to Aunt Jane's garlic bread. It was always a great night when we were eating Aunt Jane's cooking!! My memories of Aunt Jane span 43 years. They are many and they are wonderful and I will treasure them forever and ever. And Uncle Wyatt in case you didn't know. Aunt Jane may not have felt well for the last few years but what made her feel wonderful and keep going was because you were by her side every minute. You became the spouse who cared for her with more skill, compassion and love than is imaginable. Bill and Bob she loved you all so very much!! She couldn't wait to always catch us up on all the great things you were doing. And then bragging on her Grandkids. And Cindy the relief she had knowing she had you to help with everything!
She will be missed by all! So during these hard days try to remember one of the millions of things she said or did that would bring a smile or even a smirk to your face. We love you Aunt Jane.
All my heart to Uncle Wyatt, Bill and Bob
Love Jan
