Right out of high school, along with one of her high school friends, she joined the United States Women's Army Corp (WAC). She was sent to Alabama for basic training, then to Washington DC to work at the Army Material Command and The Pentagon. This is where her life and future changed forever. A tall, good looking soldier from Lake Stevens, Washington was transferred to Washington DC after his tour of duty in Vietnam. They were both assigned to the same AMC office. One thing led to another and on February 24, 1968 they were married in Fort Myer, Va. They moved back to Everett, Wash. where Jane commuted to Fort Lewis every day. Soon they had a daughter, Tracie and two years later a son, Scott and they entered into the life of a modern middle class family. They lived in Lake Stevens before moving to Marysville, Wash. in 1980. Jane was a stay at home mom while her children were young. She then went to work at Farm Credit Services in Everett and Mt. Vernon, Wash. and then at BECU in Everett. She had many health issues the last seven to ten years of her life. She fought through them with a strong will and upbeat attitude. She wouldn't let them get the best of her, until she finally got tired of fighting.
