I met Jane when I was 17 and she was a very dear friend. I spoke to her on her last Birthday, and it was great to go down memory lane with her. Craig and Nancy my thoughts and prayers are with you – and my memories. Jane – you are home now, surrounded in love. Say hi to your mom for me – and say hi to my mom for me too.
I’m so sorry to learn of Jane’s passing. We were classmates at EPHS and I really liked her. I remember her as being very sweet.
Dear Sister Nancy,
I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. May God hold you in the palm of His hand while the welcoming heavens rejoice with your sister Jane’s entering her eternal reward for a life well lived. . .
