Jane Harper Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
She was a devoted wife, loving mother and grandmother. Ma Harper was a sweet, kind, loving person. Anyone who knew her, loved her. Her nickname was Happy Jane because she would come to work every day at GE singing songs. She carried on that tradition with her children and grandchildren by calling and singing happy birthday to them every year. She will be forever missed but resting in peace sheltered by the arms of God.
