Jane was one of my best friends since high school. Some of the best times I had were spent with Jane. Before we were married, it was me, Jane, and Eileen. There wasn't a dance floor we meet that we didn't like! Good Lord we had fun together! Nothing like girl friends! Once we were married and had kids, the fun times with Jane didn't stop, they just changed. I use to bring my kids over to her house in Franklin, and the kids would be running around and playing, and Jane and I would get to sit around and shoot the breeze. Simple times, great laughs, Lots of laughs, and the simple Beautiful Gift of Friendship. My daughter Mary's first job was with Jane at River Hills South Nursing home. It was nice to know someone could look out for my daughter on her first real job. Over the years, life happens and we both had priorities that didn't give us the opportunities to see each other like we would of like to. We kept in touch thru phone calls and of course Christmas cards. I so wish I would of known of her passing, and could of had a chance to pay my respects. More importantly, it breaks my heart that she is gone, my Dear Sweet Friend. I am so glad that we spoke about a month before she passed. She knew I Loved and Cared about her for the Beautiful Friend she was to me. Jane and I shared everything. Our successes and failures in life, our joys, our heartaches, our hopes, our dreams, everything. We helped each other thru it all. Unconditional Love, Support, and Friendship. I am so Blessed for having had Jane as that kind of a friend, but sadly, now there is a new hole in my heart, and there is no Jane to help me thru it. I am So Sorry for your Loss, but I am also So Sorry for my own Loss.
Sincerely, Margaret Rose
