In the midst of challenges life brought her way, Jane never wavered in her compassion for others. She continued to support her family and friends extending a helping hand when she could.
Her legacy is one of unyielding kindness and generosity. Cherishing time spent with family and friends over a meal and a good conversation and caring for her yorkie Chewie were of the utmost importance.
