She passed away peacefully close to her family on December, 8th, 2019 around 2:30 PM.
Jane is survived by her three daughters, Mary Ko, Sylvia Christensen, and Lorri Pearia, and her two sons Robert Kwan and Bruce Kwan as well as her ten grandchildren Priscilla Perez, Stephanie Ko, Tina Sixberry, Jeff Christensen, Veniese Pearia, Michelle Pearia-Le, William Pearia, Lisa Kwan, Katie Kwan, and Nichole Kwan, and her two great grandchildren Sophia Perez and Ethan Perez.
Jane moved to Portland, Oregon in 1971 after marrying Jimmy Kwan. She lived in the same house for nearly 50 years raising her sons and daughters and their children throughout that time.
She loved to cook and made sure her family stayed close by gathering them for Sunday dinner week in and week out, with the occasional game of Maj Jhong thrown in for entertainment purposes.
Jane was a warm giving mother, grandmother, sister, wife, and friend who always made sure everyone else came first.
God hath not promised skies always blue
Flowers Strewn pathways all our lives through
God hath not promised sun without rain Joy without sorrow
Peace without pain
But God hath promised Strength for the day
Rest for our labor, Light for the way, Grace for the trials, Help from above
Unfailing kindness, Undying love
