Dear Debbie and Larry,
This is Jerry Ann Hull Crabtree. I was born the same hospital and time as Larry . Our family's were together in Japan. Next door neighbors. My mother has a picture of your mother with Larry and mom with me when we were babies. When I was stationed in Jacksonville during the 1976 mom came and visited and we met up then.  My mom is very sadden that your mom passed.  All her friends are leaving.  Moms name is Yasuko she lives in Tacoma WA. I live in Oak Harbor WA.
I hope her passing was easy.  The email I left is my mothers. Mine is jerry.a.crabtree@comcast.net

Sympathies to you and your family.



Aunt Jane,  you will always be remembered as dignified, honorable, and lovely; a petite, tenacious individual and truly a woman of substance.  Always the lady, you could light up a room with your presence.  You never lacked humor... who could forget your stories, the quiet chuckle, and the slight downward nod with the crooked smile... it wasn't long before all eyes were on you.   Although agreeable,  everyone  knew when they were on your bad list... that look, the shake of your head, and the sound of disapproval.  I wanted to do anything to win back your approval.  You will be most remembered for your love and devotion to family... devoted wife, mother, grandmother and family member.    You will be sorely missed.  Love you always, Lynn

I loved my Aunt Jane.  She was a beautiful, petite lady with a gentle, quite nature,  a sharp mind,  and a witty humor that left anyone around her in stitches!   Family was very important to her and she loved and adored her children and grandchildren so very much as well as us all.   Remembering all, especially at Christmas, was very important to her.  A card was all she needed to say you remembered her and she is still a part of you.  I had tremendous respect for her and my desire was to have hers, too, so I made sure I wasn't on her "naughty list" when we met.  We ALL knew what that list was!  She was a gift, a rare treasure,  and all who knew her are richer in their lives.
