    I just learned of Jane's passing. I remember her so well from our meetings. I especially remember how excited she was when she finally retired because being a teacher, she had always had to miss her son Chris's birthday . I remember how vivacious she was and her beautiful clothes and jewelry and that fabulous red hair. Many of us had heard of her dementia and the last time I saw her in front of my house, she did not know me. I will not forget her and send my condolences to her son Chris and his wife, and to Jane's sister Mayfair.
