Jane Finsterwald Long

Jane Long, age 87, passed away peacefully on February 3, 2012, at Pomerado Hospital. She was surrounded by her family and friends. Jane was born March 6, 1924, in Athen, Ohio, the daughter of Lucile and Russell Finsterwald.
Jane was preceded in death by her husband, Bill Long, in 1987. They had just celebrated their 40th anniversary.
In 1990 Jane moved from Rochester, Michigan, to Rancho Bernardo. She was an avid golfer and quite involved in the Republican Party. She has continued to be very active with the Pi Beta Phi Alumnae Club, The Assistance League of Inland North County, The Questers/Rancho Monserate Chapter #1261, RB Community Presbyterian Church and numerous bridge groups. She always held many offices and was very dedicated to the "READY...SET...READ!" project sponsored by The Assistance League.
