Jane White Obituary
CORNING - Jane W. White, 89, passed away peacefully at home on Wednesday (July 17, 2024) with her family by her side.
She was born March 26, 1935, in Wellsville, the daughter of the late Paul W. and Genevieve (Graham) Weinhauer.
Jane was a lifelong resident of Wellsville, graduating from Wellsville High School in 1953. On Sept. 4, 1954, she married her beloved husband of 61 years, Charles "Chuck" White, who predeceased her in 2016. She started working at the Bradley Producing Company and then found her career as the Church Secretary of Trinity Lutheran Church, where she served for over 30 years.
Proud of her faith, she was a devoted member of the church and its various organizations. She was a loyal friend, maintaining lifelong friendships with those she held dear and spending many Tuesday afternoons with her bridge group gals.
Above all, she cherished her family, giving her purpose and joy. She was a dedicated wife, mother and grandmother. It was through her family that her love shined. She will forever be remembered for gentle praise, strength and warmth and for living her life with grace and elegance.
Jane is survived by a daughter, Carrie W. (Leon) Smith of Corning; two sons, Charles D. (Debora) White of Hartford and Bradley P. (Tracy) White of Anderson, S.C.; seven grandchildren, Jason (Carrie Langley) Horton, Laura (Aaron) Clark, Lawrence (Crystal) Horton, Janine Kubricky, Dillon (Ashley Olden) White, Alexis (Ryan) Padden and Jada White; many great-grandchildren; a brother, William Weinhauer; two nieces, Janet Kemp and Jeannine Weinhauer; and two nephews, Stephen and Robert Kisel.
Friends are invited to call from 11 a.m. to noon Friday (July 26, 2024) at Trinity Lutheran Church of Wellsville. Her funeral will begin at noon, in the church, with Reverend Dr. Eric Ash presiding, followed by a luncheon from 12:30-1:30. Private burial will be in the Woodlawn Cemetery.
