To her pledge sisters at 1012 State Street, Jane was Shattuck. I will always remember her fondly and with great admiration for Jane always did things "her way". May you, her family, find comfort in knowing that we all remember her, and are so thankful that she was a part of our college life and love. TOTT P-fund
