Jane was born in Wintersville, Ohio on July 31, 1929 to parents Morgan and Marguerite Dougherty. She attended Ravenna High School and lived in Portage County for over 81 years. As a young woman, she worked side by side with her father at Dougherty Roofing and was one of the first female roofers to join the United Union of Roofers Water Proofers & Allied Workers. Jane took over as owner of Dougherty Roofing in 1989, working side by side with her son Chris, until retiring to Pinehurst N.C. in 2005. She then entrenched herself as a fixture in the snack bar at Southern Pines Golf Course.
Having the "gift of gab", she never met a stranger and in her spare time she enjoyed traveling, swimming, sunbathing and shopping. Most of all she loved and enjoyed time with her family and grandchildren.
Jane is survived by her son Chris (Nicole) Logan, grandson Timothy Logan and granddaughter Lori Sanden. She is also survived by her beloved great-grandchildren Jacob, Taylor & Wyatt Logan, Brandon Sanden, many loving nieces and nephews and all of her loving friends in Pinehurst N.C.
Jane was preceded in death by her parents, her daughter Marguerite Lang and her brothers Bob and Bill Dougherty.
Family and friends will be received to celebrate Jane's life at the Wood-Kortright-Borkoski Funeral Home, 703 E. Main St., Ravenna, on Saturday, November 6, 2021 from 11am until 1pm. Please bring your favorite story about Jane to share with everyone.
