Our thoughts and prayers go out to Bill and Christa and the rest of Bill and Jane’s family. Jane was fortunate to have two such loving caregivers. I hope it helps to know that friends are praying for you.

What great memories growing up – but our favorite is Jane’s moaning about her black-and-blue knees from skating (and falling) on Shuman’s pond. Despite her health, Jane’s beaming smile was ever present whenever we met. Her continuing courage and good spirit is an example for us all. Our thoughts and prayers are with Bill, Krista, Elwood, Woody, Karen and all of her family. Blessed be.

I’m so very sorry for your loss. Jane and I went to Centerfield School in Martins Creek together back in the late 50’s. She was a very sweet girl. Saw her last Fall when her family brought her to our Church for a supper. My thoughts and prayers are with you. RIP Jane.
