Jane Croft Obituary
Jane was preceded in death by her first husband, Roland McKenzie; her second husband, Jack Croft; her beloved daughter, Cathy Aubrey; her step-son, Kevin Croft; and her brother, Warren LeBar.
She is survived by her daughters, Linda Gromoll and Gail Stott (John). She is also survived by her step-children, Michael (Susan) Croft, Debbie (Marlowe) Beis, and Nancy (Ron) Heffron. Jane leaves behind seven grandchildren, twelve great-grandchildren, and three great-great-grandchildren, all of whom were a source of pride and joy to her.
After moving to Florida more than four years ago to live with her daughter Gail, Jane embraced life fully and became an active part of the community. Together, Jane and Gail shared joyful moments through TikTok videos that touched the hearts of more than 120,000 followers across several countries. Their special bond and story were featured in an article on Today.com and in a segment on The Kelly Clarkson Show.
Jane especially cherished her Tuesday night McDonald's and bingo outings with Gail-simple traditions that brought her great happiness and laughter.
Jane will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and the many people whose lives she touched with her warmth, humor, and spirit.

Thoughts and prayers to your family. I know it´s never long enough, but what a gift to have had your mother in your life for 102 years. Watching your TikTok videos brought joy to my days. Seeing how you interacted with her was a pleasure to watch. You were a very good caretaker, daughter, and friend to your mother until the end.
