Jane was always one of my favorite cousins. Always pleasant, kind and easy to talk to. I was so glad I got to see her at Jim's funeral as it had been quite awhile. I can remember her now as she looked that day. My condolences to all of the family. I know you will miss her. God bless you all.

Jane always seemed to have a direction she was headed in...moving with a purpose, but always taking time to visit and care for others. We will miss her, but she will stay in our memories. We send our prayers to Hap and all of her family.

Tom, I'm very sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you and your family.

We will miss very much Jane's smile and chuckle and then her wave as she walked bye and the times we all stopped to chat over the fence. Hap and Jane made us feel right at home in our new neighborhood when we moved in in 1998 and continued to greet us warmly and ask about the kids and all throughout the years... A truly good neighbor....thank you, Jane.
