I am sorry to be writing so late. We were just talking about Jane Ray and Dit and so I Googled Jane Ray and saw her obituary.

Jane Ray hosted the wedding shower for my wife Marcia (Grone) Sansom at her home in the summer of 1982. Both my grandmother and Marcia's grandmother were able to attend. Jane Ray and Dit were always very nice to me growing up, but we will never forget her hospitality and generosity in hosting that shower and all the nice gifts we received. I'm sure many others were blessed by her thoughtfulness.

Our condolences on your loss.

In Christian Love,

Charlie & Marcia Sansom

She was such a sweet lady. After Debbies' surgery 30? (really?) years ago, when Deb was staying with her and Dit for awhile, I took ice cream to their house because it was something Deb could eat. After that Jane Ray always greeted me with a great big smile and "Ahhh, it's the ice cream lady", and a big hug. That will always be very special to me. Everyone who knew her will always have special memories of her.
