I really miss you mom. It does not seem like you are gone. We are going to get justice for your death. You are in my heart and prayers every day. Love you. I will not let you down.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always. Jane and I became friends in the early 70s through our sons who played football together. She was my confidante and my support while I was alone with my two boys when my husband was out on long Westpacs for the Navy. She taught me how to make many desserts. Although we didn’t get to see each other often these past years, when we did it was just like it was yesterday. I will miss her dearly. RIP my dear friend.

My Mother. So many wonderful things to be said. She is my best friend, Confidant, adviser and inspiration. The words I write are the words of praise and admiration. Not of wishful thinking. We both shared the love of family and music as well as our disappointments. But she kept the faith for both of us. As beautiful as she was on the outside, Her beauty really shined in her soul. I am lucky, blessed and joyful she is my mother and will always honor and respect her as a guiding soul.

The Aragon's loved Jane and would always look forward to seeing her beautiful smile and her contagious attitude.

Years back we bought her a plant and every time we saw her, we would update us on how the plant was thriving and growing across her living room.
We will miss her and hope others that loved her live the way she did, by spreading love and happiness for others to emulate.

Say hello to our loved ones Jane and we will see you again.

Love - The Aragons

She was a wonderful person and had a great sense of humor. She and I scoped out the assisted living place Dad had to go to so he could recover from his stroke, and we had fun swapping stories about "Patients We Have Known and Sometimes Loved".

My husband and I also enjoyed seeing her with brother Mike in Ramona, California when we all visited the casino nearby and had dinner--that was a great evening and still wished we'd had more with all four of us.

She will be greatly missed.

Love, Miriam Lamb

I’m truly honored to have her as my grandmother. She was phenomenal woman. That’s her! Words can’t express the amount of gratitude I have. I’m truly blessed to have her as a part of my upbringing. Will all of the challenges we face in today’s world, my grandmother taught me early on to pay it forward and accept people from all walks of life. My grandmother Jane was a wise and talented women. Her children and grandchildren share her wisdom and talents. I love you grandma.

Jane was my soulmate, companion and best friend for over 42 years of wonderful married life. I am missing her desperately and know the agony of her untimely passing will stay with me for the rest of my life when we can both be together again. The mother of six wonderful children and grandmother for 24 children and great-grandmother for 5 (with two more on the way) will be a role model and example of love and devotion for many years to come. She was a wonderful nurse as well as mentor for friends and family who would come to her seeking her sage advice. A parisioner at Holy Family Catholic Church for over 60 years, she was a former Eucharistic Minister and one-time President of the church's St Vincent de Paul Society. Children included Zivia Sweeney, Dominic WIlson, Shyronda Wilson, Tony Wilson, Missy Wilson, Nicole Wilson, and Brandon Turner...and she loved them all. I miss her with all my heart and look forward to the day when our souls will join again in our Father's Heaven. I love you babe!
