She also worked for the Dundee radio station as a news reporter and for the Dundee Observer. She retired in 1996? and dedicated her remaining time bringing joy to everyone she met. Jane was known for her smile and her sense of humor. She loved to read (before her illness) and play crossword puzzles. Making people laugh was a life-time goal.

She is pre-deceased by three step-sons Raymond McLoud Jr., Harry McLoud and Edgar McLoud.

The family would like to express their gratitude to the staff at the Penn Yan Manor. They showed her love and kindness during her stay there. In return, Jane made them smile and laugh. "Oh Pickles"

Jane would always give me a big smile and say, How ya doin ladybug, whenever she saw me. I always called her momma. If I was gone for more than a day, she would ask where I'd been. That's my Jane, gotta love her. Sure am going to miss her! Not the same, going by her room and not seeing her there!
