Jane (Story) Plitt, 84, passed away peacefully at home in Eastham, Massachusetts on April 30, 2019. Jane was born in Middletown, CT on March 16, 1935. She is survived by her husband of 61 years, Robert P. Plitt. She was the daughter of the late Arnold B. Story and Mary B. Story.
Jane graduated from Woodrow Wilson High School and Hartford Hospital School of Nursing, and worked as a Registered Nurse at Hartford Hospital before the first of her children was born. She later worked as a school nurse and CNA but her primary focus was always her family. She was a wonderful and loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She loved being with her family, reading, and cheering on the Red Sox. Throughout her life she embodied a strong, quiet Christian faith. She was active in the North Canton United Methodist Church in Connecticut and then on Cape Cod at the Eastham United Methodist Church.
She was predeceased by her sister Barbara Brown and is survived by her sister Joan Connelly. She is also survived by her children including her son Jeffrey O. Plitt and his wife, Linda of San Tan Valley, Arizona, her son Andrew R. Plitt and his wife Annette of Riverton, Utah, her daughter Rebecca Bridges and her husband William of Torrington, CT, and her son Tyson J. Plitt and his wife Jean of Barkhamsted, CT, as well as her grandchildren and great-grandchild.
The family wishes to express their immense gratitude to all of Jane’s wonderful caregivers, including Donette, Marissa, Kimberly, Sr. Madeline, Sr. Mary, Marietta, and Sandy, who made it possible for Jane to remain at home for the majority of her illness.
