My condolences go out to Jane's sons Matt, Andy, and her mother Elizabeth. As a co-worker of Jane's at American Municipal Power, I was privledged to observe her ability to get employees to work toward commen goals. I appreciate the conversations that we had about the various difficulties that either we both faced or one of us had faced in the past. Jane's insights were highly valued by me, and her ability to empathize with my situation and suggest solutions was appreciated tremendously. Jane was a fantastic friend to me, and I will miss you greatly.

I first met Jane about 15 years ago and we remained in touch via email. I received the sad news from her son Andrew. We lost a kind and gentle soul. I admired and respected her. She will be missed! My condolences to Andrew and the family. Rest in Peace!

I only met Jane twice, but even then I could tell she was special. I have known her parents for several years and they are also very special. My heart hurts for Jane's mother and her sons - may their grief be lessened knowing they were part of a special person's life. My thoughts & prayers continue for them all.
