Jane M. Brady

Jane M. Brady, 71, of Lancaster, PA, passed away at Masonic Village of Elizabethtown on Tuesday, March 3, 2026, with family by her side!

The daughter of the late Robert Sangrey and Naomi (Keperling) Breighner, Jane was born in Lancaster and graduated from Penn Manor High School.

Jane is survived by her two daughters, Rebecca J. Brady, and Kimberly M. Salvatori, her three grandchildren, Brady A. Amaya, Arianna F. Salvatori and Vivienne J. Salvatori, her significant other Francis Gerz, her three sisters, Bonnie L., wife of John Hess, Nancy J., wife of Paul Charles, and Lois A. Koser, and many nieces and nephews as well as great-nieces and great-nephews.

She had a passion for gardening, growing flowers and making floral arrangements, and being outdoors, which perfectly suited her profession as a landscaper.

Jane was a firecracker and a compassionate and kind person. She loved her grandchildren more than anything. She also enjoyed photography, singing, dancing, and playing her guitar.

Jane and her significant other Francis Gerz enjoyed traveling to his Potter County cabin and the beach in Ocean City, MD.

Jane’s family will receive guests from 10:00 to 11:00 am, followed by a celebration of her life at 11:00 am on Friday, March 13, 2026, at the Charles F. Snyder III Funeral Home & Crematory, 2421 Willow Street Pike, Willow Street, PA 17584.
