I worked with Jane at the Diamond Bldg. She was one of the rare truly wonderful people to be around. She was a joy and special lady. Her insight on life was invaluable. I was a young person and had young ideas. She gave me such good Christian advice which lead me to the Lord. I don’t know if she ever knew that, but am sure she felt it in her big heart. I am so very sadden by her passing. We will miss her. Condolences to her family.
Myself and the rest of the family would like to say thank you for your thoughts and prayer in this time of loss and sorrow.
Mark Holtsclaw
I am sending my deepest sympathies to you and your family on the loss of Jane. I’m sure you know that she is in a much better place now and is probably having the time of her life. She always looked forward to getting to heaven! She was a joy to work with (in the Diamond Building with Children with Special Health Care Needs) and I feel blessed to have had the pleasure of having Jane walk through my life when she did. She was such a special lady and I know you will miss her dearly. My thoughts are with you and your family at this difficult time.
With deepest sympathy,
Sherry Richards
John, Sorry to hear of the passing of your wife. She always had a smile on her face and was very pleasant whenever I saw you two together. I know you will miss her dearly.
John, we are so sorry to lose dear Jane. It was a joy to know her and her winning ways. You took such great care of her and we know she is rejoicing in Heaven today, with no more sorrow, no more pain. We look forward to seeing both you and her again on that beautiful shore. In the meantime, with sad hearts for our earthly loss, we offer you our deepest sympathy and Christian love. We’ll be praying for you and the rest of the family as you go forward through the sad days ahead. We’d love to help you if you need us. Love, Nancy & Wayne
