Jane A. Hendrix Lewis

Jane was a longtime member of Marietta Cumberland Presbyterian Church. She retired from Hardin Valley Elementary Schools as manager of the cafeteria. To say she enjoyed the kids was an understatement. She loved to travel to Virginia and spend time with her daughter, Erica and son-in-law, Desmond and she loved her son, Kevin unconditionally, loved her beach trips with her Beach Buddies and loved to spend time with her family, as holidays were always a big affair in her family.

Jane was strong and honest, fierce and devoted to those close to her, was funny and a joy to be around.

Jane is survived by her daughter, Erica Michelle Lewis Cahill (Desmond) and was eagerly awaiting the arrival of her first grandchild in August; son, Kevin Michael Lewis; twin sister, Janet E. Stooksbury; sister, Karen G. Hendrix; niece, Cindy Nabors Rhoden (Wes), niece, Dianna Nabors Hutsell (Adam); Great-nieces, Emma Rhoden, Hannah Rhoden, Laney Hutsell and Great-nephew, Mason Hutsell.
