In Loving Memory of Jane

Jane was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother whose greatest joy came from time spent with her family. She cherished gatherings with loved ones, especially during the early years at the Lake of the Ozarks, where many treasured memories were made. A woman of deep faith, Jane found strength and joy in her church community and worship. She had a passion for cooking and sharing meals with others, always making everyone feel welcome around her table.

Jane took immense pride in her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren who were the light of her life. She was a steadfast supporter of her husband's business endeavors and later pursued her own dream, opening a gourmet gift shop in Killeen, Texas. Her warmth, strength, and love will be remembered always.

Visitation will be from 9-11 a.m. Saturday, August 9, 2025 at New Covenant Church, 3899 S. State Rt. 159, Glen Carbon. A memorial service will immediately follow.
