She was my best friend. I called her whenever every little thing happened in my life good or bad and she always gave me the best advice even when I didn’t wanna hear it she always told me to make sure I put God first and be kind and then my actions speak louder than words, but my words matter too. I love you, grandma and I’ll miss you forever.
I have lost a “sister”. So many wonderful memories growing up with Jane. She was funny, loving, and cared so much about others. Jane will be missed so much. My heart is just broken for all of you. Know that every one of you are loved. In my thoughts and prayers. Love, Linda Pack Woodyard
Words don’t come easy when your heart feels heavy with the loss of a genuine friend. A friend who was indeed like a sister.
That is who Jane was to so many people. That is who she was to me. A kind and caring person who treated anyone she met with respect and compassion.
I met Jane in nursing school. Although we lived in different dorms we became fast friends, mostly because she was kind enough to include me. She really had a sense of humor and was alot of fun.
I remember when Jane was dating Lonnie. She really grinned and lit up when he came on the unit. Because she was a bit older I used to tell her when I grow up I wanted to be just like her. Because Jane was a good person. She put God and family first.
She became a nurse like her Mom. I think the nursing, kindness, and compassion is a big part of Jane’s legacy.
With Jane as a friend, in good times or bad; I could count on her support and advice. When she said, ” Barbara Jean” I knew to really take note and listen. Even though she might grin, that tone said, “Listen up.”
Our friendship was like that, just honest and seamless. We could go weeks, months, and years sometimes and just pick right back up like yesterday.
One time I tried to apologize for not keeping in touch. You know life can get overwhelming when circumstances change.
But you know, Jane stopped me and said something like we’re here now and that’s what counts! What a friend indeed!
She always had a way with words and could put you at ease. Even when she talked about Palliative and Hospice care she thought of how it would also benefit her family.
Jane, my sisterly friend and hero! She was so brave.
Mostly I enjoyed our chats and then texts as her condition declined. I enjoyed all the pics she shared of Lonnie and the dogs, her bird pics. And pics of Laura and Lane, their spouses, and grandchildren and you could just feel the love she shared. And years ago when she spoke of her in-laws and how she loved them.That alone spoke volumes to me.
Jane was very proud of and found comfort in her loving and strong husband and family. She was surrounded by love and she knew it. What a blessing indeed! I reminded her love like life is everlasting and she would always have that.
I pray for continued strength for each of you in the coming days and at times when grief becomes overwhelming. I hope during those times of sorrow and grief you will feel God’s embrace and find comfort in your memories of Jane.
God Bless you each.
There won’t be anymore chats or texts yet my heart still remembers my friend Jane.
And watch for little instances that happen, some may call it a coincidence, but I call it comforting Hugs from Heaven.
I love you all.
