Dear Scott, Kate, Melissa & Sarah,
I am so deeply sorry to hear this news! Jane was always a bright ray of sunshine whenever she came down the halls of St. Brigid's to my office. I remember her as a loving, fun-loving mother and incredibly supportive parent at St. Brigid's. Lean on each other during this time and may the wonderful memories that you share fill the void that will be left with her passing. With each day, keep her wonderful spirit alive in each of you by sharing those memories. I shall remember her smile and the sparkle in her eyes when she would look at her girls! Girls, when you hug each other, hold on just a little bit tighter, because a little part of your Mom lives within each you, breath it in, for you will feel her presence there! You are all in my prayers.

To Jane's family..
There are no words to express how sad we are for all of you. We will pray for your strength and healing. Please accept our
condolences. Know she is no longer suffering and is in enteral peace.
Do not stand at my grave and forever weep.I am not there; I do not sleep.I am a thousand winds that blow.I am the diamond glints on snow.I am the sunlight on ripened grain.I am the gentle autumn's rain.When you awaken in the morning's hushI am the swift uplifting rushOf quiet birds in circled flight.I am the soft stars that shine at night.Do not stand at my grave and forever cry.I am not there. I did not die.
