Jane H. Connor
Age: 95 of Cherry Hill Formerly of Haddonfield
(nee Hall) on December 13, 2022. Devoted wife of the late Richard "Dick" E. Connor, cherished mother of Richard "Rick" E. Connor, Jr (Janice) and John "Jack" M. Connor; adoring grandmother of Richard, Mark, Paul, Timothy, and Darren Connor; great grandmother of Alyssa, Shelby, Shane, Lochlan, and Lillian Jane Connor; dear aunt of Janet Sage (nee Hall), Cindy Cordova (nee Hall), Bonnie Hall, and the late Laurie Hall; sister of the late John "Jack" and the late James "Jim" Hall.

Jane and Dick met at HMHS, married following his service in the US Navy during WWII, and they were inseparable throughout their 60 years of marriage. Jane graduated from Haddonfield Memorial High School ('44) and from Trenton State College ('48) with a teaching degree. She taught full time at Merchantville High School while husband Dick completed his post war education at Pennsylvania Military College. When their two boys were older, she returned to teaching as a frequent substitute in the Collingswood and Haddon Township school systems. Jane was a devoted member of the First Presbyterian Church of Haddonfield for 83 years where she served on various committees and participated in weekly Bible studies. She loved our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ, and lived her life as a testimony to Him. Jane enjoyed spending time with her friends from church, Haddonfield, and the Cadbury retirement community and was devoted to serving on the communion committee at her church for many years. Her favorite pastime was getting together with family on holidays, especially with her grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Funeral services for Jane will be held privately by the family. In lieu of flowers, charitable donations in Jane's name may be made to the First Presbyterian Church of Haddonfield.
