John and I were sad to see that your lovely Mother, Grandmother passed away. We met Jane and Theron at Oak Hammock as John was recovering from bi-pass surgery. Give Theron an extra hug from the two of us please. Eating meals at their table, seeing their love for each other and our lively table talk really helped John recover. We can understand how they made a difference where ever they were, I'm sure.
Our thoughts are with Theron and your family.

I cherish the time I spent with your Mom. During our visits we told family stories, looked at pictures, discussed events or the puzzle app she got me hooked on. What a great lady. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
Jane was the consummate educator and an exceptional person. As a beginning principal I was blessed to have Jane serve as a role model and mentor. During a time when I needed assistance at my school, Jane stepped out of retirement and in for me as a “substitute principal” while I recovered from surgery. I know her council helped me be a more effective school leader I treasured her wisdom and sense of humor. Thank you Jane. I am one of many who will miss you. God bless!
