Clare, Bill, Kathy and Kathryn,
We are very sorry for your loss.
May Jane rest in peace.
Jane was such a lovely person. So sorry for your loss.
I’m so very sorry to learn the sad news of Jane’s passing. Jane and I worked together over many years at several Hartford non-profits, including Hands On Hartford. I had the joy of staying in touch with her, enjoyed her sweet notes and loved her thoughtfulness and spirit too. Deepest sympathy to her family and friends.
I’m so very sorry. Jane and I worked together for many years and much of that time we shared an office together. She was the best office mate. She was a kind, thoughtful, gentle soul. She was a true friend. So many memories. Rest easy my friend. Sincerest condolences to Kathy and the rest of the family. Till we meet again Janey..💚
