Oh Tom! I am shocked and saddened to see this. I have been so sad since we lost my mom. I somehow hope it brings you comfort to know Jane and Vicki are in heaven together again, listening to their favorite country music and relaxing on the beach. Peace be with you; Mark, Dawn and Chris too.

Tom, my thoughts and prayers go out to you, and your family, with the sudden passing of your lovely wife and life partner. Jane had a kind heart. She was the first to welcome me when I visited the Jackies as a guest nearly 5 years ago. Our Dayton connection brought us closer and I eagerly anticipated seeing her at the Jackies meetings. She will be deeply missed by many.

I shared many enjoyable times with Jane in the Sassy Red Hats where she served so well as our "Queen". Her enthusiasm, energy and humor will be missed by all. Her love of animals (especially Goldens) was always very evident and I remember when she first brought home "Mandy". She will be missed by so many and I will always cherish her memory.

We are so saddened to hear of Jane's passing. She was a pleasure to work with at Morton Middle School. Jane was a really kind and thoughtful person. To know she is no longer with us is very sad.
We will miss her.

I was shocked and very sad to read of Jane's death. We spent many years together at Butler High School. We shared a love of our dogs. I admired her love of learning and travel, and her interest in trying new things. Sending my sincere sympathy.
