Jane Daniel Obituary
Memorial service: 11 a.m. Tuesday at South Hills Christian Church. Graveside service: private. Visitation: 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday at Greenwood Funeral Home.
Memorials: Her memory may be honored by gifts to South Hills Christian Church, 3200 Bilglade Road, Fort Worth 76133; or a charity of choice.
Jane was born April 8, 1928, in Seminole, Okla., and grew up in the East Texas oilfields. She met Hicks Daniel Jr. in Galveston, where they were married in 1947. She and her family moved to Boston, Mass., Little Rock, Ark., then back to Fort Worth in 1963 as Hicks moved up the corporate ladder at John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company.
Jane had a curious mind and greatly believed in the value of education. She worked at the Mary Couts Burnett Library at TCU for 27 years and earned her bachelor's degree from Texas Christian University in 1993, at the age of 65. She retired from TCU in 1997 to care for her mother.
Jane was a member of South Hills Christian Church in Fort Worth, where she sang in the choir and made lifelong friends. After the loss of her husband, Jane continued to make friends at Broadway Plaza Nursing Home.
The family particularly wishes to thank the family of former roommate, Myrtle Blessing; and the staff and caregivers at Broadway Plaza for the many kindnesses they showed to Jane during her time there.
Dear friend to many and beloved mother of David and Lisa, she will be missed by all.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Mildred and William Jack Collier of Hitchcock; her husband, P. Hicks Daniel Jr.; and her brother, William James Collier and wife, Ann of Galveston.
Survivors: Son, David Daniel and wife, Lety of Monterrey, Mexico; daughter, Lisa Coleman and husband, Ronnie of Sherman; grandchildren, Julie Vidrine and husband, Chad of Fort Worth, Ginny Wylie and husband, Derik of Alvord, Sarah Hill and fiance, Matt Halverson of St. Louis, Mo.; great-grandchildren, Allison, Addison, Anderson and Aaron Vidrine, Duncan and Wynn Wylie; brother, David Jack Collier and wife, Mary Ann of Galveston; sister-in-law, Stella Mae Barber and husband, Quentin of Fort Worth; numerous nieces and nephews and their children and grandchildren.

Jane and Hicks were very perious to me and my family. They were very supportive of my daughter in high school and college while she played volleyball.I enjoyed working with her and our early morning conversation and the short visits with her at Broadway Plaza. She will truly be missed by me.

Davy & Lisa and families,
Jane was a precious aunt. I remember that from the time of her wedding she was full of love and beautiful smiles. We miss her very much.
Joe & I are sorry not to be at the memorial service. We have bad colds with coughs which would be too disturbing.
We send you our love.
Joe & Diane

What a wonderful woman you were, "Ain't Jane". I can't think of you without hearing your boisterous and contagious laugh that lifted most any gathering. Now the two dearest people in my life who shared an April 8th birthday have moved on.
Thank you for the gifts of joy, humor, passion and love you brought with you on your journey through here.
Much love to you always, Daniel
