Jane D Pitts

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 AM on Monday, October 26, 2026, at Striffler-Hamby Mortuary Chapel in LaGrange, Georgia. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, at the funeral home.

Jane was born on February 19th, 1951, to Joseph Aldine Jamerson and Margaret Landress Jamerson. She graduated from Harris County High School and later attended West Georgia College. She married the love of her life, Richard “Richie” Dunn, and together they raised two children, James and Leslie.

Professionally, Jane was an entrepreneur who, alongside her husband, established a craft business in Pine Mountain, Georgia. What began as a small local venture eventually grew into a successful business with national and international reach.

Beyond her professional accomplishments, Jane had a wonderful appreciation for life’s simple pleasures. She loved entertaining family and friends, enjoying good wine, traveling, listening to music, appreciating art, and spending time in her garden. One of her favorite pastimes was settling into her recliner to watch Westerns, particularly those featuring cowboys. She also had a fondness for green apples and plums sprinkled with salt. An excellent cook, Jane was especially known for her coconut cake and homemade cornbread, both of which were favorites among family and friends. Above all, she cherished the time spent with those she loved and the memories they made together.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Joseph Aldine Jamerson and Margaret Landress Jamerson; her first husband, Richard Dunn; her second husband, Joseph Vance Pitts; and her sisters, Carol Lea Wood and Donna Jo Carter.

She is survived by her children, James Dunn and Leslie Susanne Dunn-Pemberton (Amy); her granddaughter, Isabella Constance Dunn; her brother, Joseph Emery Jamerson (Vickie); her sisters, Stella Sue Ginn and Judy Karen Burleson; her stepfather, John Stewart Wood; her stepsister, Retta Marie Hanaday; and other extended family members and friends who will cherish her memory.

All arrangements are made by Striffler-Hamby Mortuary, 1010 Mooty Bridge Road, LaGrange, GA 30240 (706) 884-8636.
