I have many fond memories of the Short Family living next to us on Maple Street in Framingham. Scott and Mark, I'm sorry for your loss. Your Mother was a nice woman. I remember her teasing me about my boyfriend when I was in high school!

Jane was a wonderful friend for many years. She was an ace gardener and a compassionate woman. She retained her interest in the world up to the very end. All my condolences to her family.

Jane was a gentle force of nature Music was in her every cell - it was a joy and privilege to work with her, sing with her, and to know her

So sorry to hear of your mother´s passing. She must´ve been an amazing person, praying for all of you. Laurie Holcombe Golwitzer

Back in the day, Parks told me about riding with you in a Cadillac convertible smoking cigars in Brattleboro! Getting back with your family in heaven will be a blast. Diana Holcomb
