In her early years of retirement Jane traveled to Europe, Hawaii and Vegas, enjoyed entertainment venues like Drury Lane and the casinos in Joliet, played cards multiple times each week with her friends at Edenbridge Apartments was an avid reader throughout her life and in her spare time worked puzzles, her favorite being word-find puzzles. Jane's greatest wish was to live independently in her apartment until God called her home.She remained engaged in her life paying her own bills, managing her meds, renewing leases, etc. and did remain independent until the last four weeks of her life. For the past three years Jane was able to live in comfort and safety because her "Angel" Valerie Bylina was with her twice each week providing home care and companionship. Jane's friends Elsie, Sally, Dan and Laura looked in on Jane regularly and Kelly, Darlene, Mary Anne and the staff at Edenbridge have always gone the extra mile in supporting Jane during the thirty years that Edenbridge was her home. Jane was fierce, determined, stubborn, funny, gregarious, super intelligent and loved her grandkids and great-grand kids beyond measure. All we can say is "Good job, Mom. Well done!"
In lieu of flowers, Jane requested that memorials be sent to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, TN 38105-9959.
