I met Jane at Sullivan Central High School my
Senior year 79-80'. We were in band together. I
just found out about her passing and I'm so very
saddened, but I know she is in the presence of the
Lord. We miss you Jane.

We just heard and we are so sorry, Mike, for you and your
family. Once heard a little 6 year old say, "when someone
dies, God builds a rainbow from here to Heaven." Surely Jane
has a rainbow. With our deepest sympathy.

We didn't get to spend much time with our southern
cousins but I remember one particular time when the
Collins and the Beals visited us in Connecticut
while they were camping. Shake and Bake was running
an ad campaign at that time and we were constantly
asking Jane to say "It's Shake and Bake and I
helped" with her southern accent. She said it with
a smile although she probably thought we were crazy.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your
family.
We are very sorry for your loss. We will be praying for your entire family and for God's peace during this difficult time. John & Debbie Scott
