She was raised in Sherburne, NY, married Victor and moved to Williamsport, Pennsylvania, then later to Haverstraw, New York and settled in Connecticut in 1966. Jane was employed in Quality Control for U.S. Surgical in Norwalk for several years until her retirement.

We loved you very much Mrs. Jones. You are one of the sweetest ladies we had ever had the pleasure of meeting. I, Lisa Kennedy truly enjoyed talking with you when we visited you and Chris and PJ and Katie. Never a dull moment in your house, not ever. LOL You, Mrs. Jones will be deeply missed, and we hope someday to see you again when we are called. We will keep the Jones family and Shortell family in our hearts and prayers while you all transition through this difficult time. May God Keep you all in His Loving and Comforting Embrace.

I knew Jane for several years during her time at Clelian Center. Even on days that she may have been struggling, she always had a smile and I never heard anything unkind spoken by her.

I was always amazed at her ability to bounce back, whether it was severe illness or a difficult injury to heal from at any age, Jane would heal remarkably well. I was in awe by this, time and again.

My prayers go out to her family. She was so grateful for all of you. I'm sorry for your loss.

Our “neighborhood Gram” who will always be remembered as being such a sweet part of our “framily”. We will miss seeing her next door but glad she is once again reunited with Vic and her family. What a life, what a gal. ♥

I was raised next door to Jane in Sherburne and knew all the Dromgooles so well. I even worked for brothers, Bernard and Jack
