Please accept my deepest sympathy. I know it is extremely
hard to lose a child.
I remember Jane playing the organ at church. She was
truly a gifted lady, and so humble.
My prayer for Jane's family is 2 Corinthians 1:3 - 4.

I am so sorry to hear that Jane has passed away. Having grown up in the American Lutheran Church, her Dad confirmed me and later married my husband and me. I hope you have many great memories and pictures to help you through this chapter of life.

With great sympathy,

I am so sorry Mel to read of your wife's passing. I didn't know her but remember the Goebel family from Holy Name. My brother Terry Brennan was best friends with Jim. Please accept my deepest sympathy.

Jane's Dad was our family minister growing up. Jane and I went through Sunday school and Youth group together. She was always so kind and nice.
Looking at the current photo of Jane, I could not get over how much she looked like her mother, Alice.
May God comfort you.
