JANE DISSIN Obituary

DISSIN--Jane. Our beloved Jane Dissin passed away on January 27 after a short illness. Mother of Daniel Knobler, mother-in-law of Carrie, grandmother of Willoughby and Olive, sister of Robin Aufses and Mark Dissin, sister-in-law of Arthur and Lena, best friend to Sharon, beloved aunt of Katy, Sonya, Michael, and Jake, and dear friend to countless others. Jane lit up every room, made our homes and hearts beautiful, and, most of all, made us laugh. We will miss her so much.

Dear Robin and Mark,
I was so sorry to learn about Jane's passing. Robin, i ran into your sister-in-law, Carolyn, and mother-in-law earlier today and when i asked about the all of you, that was how i learned the sad news. Your parents were at my wedding in 1980. I remember all you fondly, around the corner from me on Oaktree Lane and carpooling to Sunday School, most likely with Jane. My heartfelt condolences.

Jane brought joy and friendship to me at an important time in my life...when we moved to Port Washington in junior high school. More recently we had fun reminiscing and also talking about our wonderful adult children of whom we are so proud. Love to Robin and Mark.
