My sincere heartfelt sympathies to the family of Jane Quick. I´m sorry I didn´t see the funeral announce- mention. My grandmother,Rebecca Cannon, was a sister to Jane´s mother, Veronica. I was a brides- maid at Jane and Gil´s wedding. Jane was such a loving and caring person in her quiet way and fun to be with. Always comforting and doing things for others unselfishly. We didn´t see each other often, but I always felt the family connection-like a big sister. May the good Lord bless and keep her safe and surround her with love everlasting. With prayers and love to the family......Jeannie Cannon Prather
