What a beautiful service at St. Charles today. It's hard to imagine a world without Jane. She touched us all in so many ways.

We want you to know how sorry we are for your loss. As you know, we lost our mom the same evening, so the two souls traveled together, nice knowing they had company on this new journey they're on. Your mom was one hek of a nice neighbor and the neighborhood won't be the same without her. Our thoughts & prayers are with all of you.
