When Jane was a newborn, she and her brother, Billy along with our Mom and Dad boarded a train from Boston to Seattle to start their new life on the west coast. They first lived in Seattle down by Green Lake, then moved to Edmonds, In 1969, they moved to the house on Butternut Rd. in Lynnwood which would remain the Family home for 45 years. Jane loved animals, and the property became a home for a horse, goats, rabbits, dogs, cats, and assorted other creatures over the years which Jane and all of the kids delighted in! Jane attended Martha Lake Elementary, Alderwood Junior High, and Lynnwood Senior High School. She had a small but loyal group of friends that were important to her and who she valued and trusted Her remarkable wit and humor was always on display for all to enjoy! Life after her school years was challenging for Jane, but she faced it head on with a Brave and Courageous spirit, always believing that the best for her was just around the corner. She was a loving and compassionate person, too fragile and too good for this world. We will miss her more than words can say!
