Jane was a bookkeeper for Pritts Feed Mill for over 50 years, starting her career at 16. She was quiet gentle woman who faced life’s adversities with strength, tenacity and diligence. She enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. What she cherished the most was time with her son and grandchildren. Tea parties with her granddaughters, Ashley and Caitlan. She enjoyed special time with granddaughter, Ashley, such as: attending "The Nutcracker" in Pennsylvania and Arizona, the Arizona Butterfly exhibit and their flower gardening. Jane appreciated time spent with friends walking at the park. She was a unique and special woman whose life represented hard work, sacrifice, love, dedication and an unwavering faith in God, family and friends. She embodied all things good in life. Her spirit lives on in all the memories we were blessed to share. May she rest in God’s eternal love. She will be missed dearly. Service and Internment for family will be held at later date.
