Memories and Condolences
for Jane Conlin
March 20, 2013
I met Jane in 1978 as we were each hired as Title I teachers at the former Farley Middle School. It was the first year for the program at the middle school level and we all worked very hard to help the students we were assigned. However, Jane was such a joy to work with. Whenever we would get frazzled at the amount of work we were responsible for her usual comment was "Let's not make a High Mass out of this." I use this phrase to this day in my home. After an evening meeting with parents, Jane would treat us to a night cap at one of the route 9 restaurants! Memories of Jane will always be with us. My deepest sympathy to Len and all the children.

A long time ago, I went down the street to play with Lenny and Johnny. Jane (Mrs. Conlin)asked me to help her bring in a lot of groceries. Len must have taken the kids out, the house was calm, without the bustling energy of a house full of children.Mrs. Conlin offered me a candy bar for helping. I tried to decline saying it wasn't necessary. She gently insisted it wasn't a gift and that I had EARNED it.This lesson stuck with me. She was a wonderful woman. My sincere condolences to the Conlins. I will always have fond memories of Jane and the rest of you.

Dear Janie, Billy, and the rest of Conlin family,
We're heartbroken to hear of Mrs. Conlin's passing. She was truly one of the greatest ladies I've ever known. Such a wonderful role model, and always full of such love and genuine caring. Many prayers being lifted!!!

My wife and I have had a close and deeply valued friendship with Mrs. Conlin's daughter Liz, and Liz's husband Jim, for many years. Through that friendship, we've gotten to know many members of the extended Conlin clan and have heard the remarkable stories that say so much about the love, kindness, and strength that bind this family together. While I didn't know Mrs. Conlin well, her life story, and the fact that she was the beloved matriarch of such an extraordinary family, speak volumes about her. Our condolences and prayers are with Liz, Jim, Karen, and the rest of the Conlins.
