I am truly sorry to hear about Jane.. She was a customer at Rips almost everyday for the 10yrs I worked there.. She loved her scratch tickets and her BBQ sandwich with just a "smidge" of slaw!!!! Her nickname from us was Smidge!! We would talk and laugh during her visits!! Jane was a great woman and will definitely be missed.. My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this time..
