We are so sorry to hear about Jane’s passing. We met her so many years ago and she was so “spunkey”. We fell in love with her. Please know we are thinking about you during this time.

Sorry to hear of Jane’s passing. I worked with Jane at Christmas Club. We remained friends but thru the years lost touch as life happens. I did try calling her last year sometime but didn’t hear back. Rest easy my friend as you are home now with Auby.

Mom, there are no words to express my love for you. You have given me a wonderful life. I have been blessed with many years of love from you. I am broken without you, as your were not only my Mother, but also my very best friend. My only joy is knowing that you are with Dad once again. Randy and I will remember the fun times we shared, and will keep those memories forever in our heart. It is not goodbye, as you are just going ahead to prepare a place for me. Give Pickles a kiss from me.
Love, Love, Cyndy XOXO
