Dear Family and Firends of Jane Moore,

I am saddened to hear of Jane's passing. I kow she was ill, so perhaps this is the rest she deserves. I hope all of you are taking comfort in knowing that Jane lived a full and bountiful life, giving of her time and wisdom to others.
She had a direct impact on my life as my Girl Scout leader in the 80s. She showed me that determination can make dreams come true.
She was a dear friend of my mother's--one of the most important support systems my mom had after the death of my father. God blessed all of us by putting Jane in the world and allowing us to know her. I am sure she has gone home to reap the blessings she sowed for herself in this world.

Ellen, Colleen, Rob, Trista & Alex
I am so very sorry for the loss of your Mom/Grandmother She was not only my boss but my friend. I will miss our lunches together, last we spoke we were going to get together and go to lilac, sadly we never got a last good chat over lunch as planned. Jane has been there for some of the most difficult times in my life and stood by me as only a good friend could do. The death of my Mother and then my Husband and then my Dad all took a toll on me, Jane never failed tp pick up the phone or make the trip up here when I needed a friend. We had many wonderful and funny stories we shared together, work and personal. Our memories will live on in my heart forever. Jane was like my second Mom and ironically yesterday I was just saying I needed to "give her a shout" as she would always say. I will be saying a special prayer tonight that she is indeed in a better place. God Bless you all, And remember " He only takes the Best!"
