Thank you to all of your for your kind words. I do not know all of you, but it's heartwarming to read your thoughts about mom. It helps me to know her even better as an adult...beyond just being my mom. She and dad had a life beyond us kids! :-) She was a great mom...so thankful for her. Thank you for your part in her life.

Caring for Jane in her last days was an honor I will not forget. She was a true blessing to have as a patients. I loved her feisty, stubborn spirit, and our conversations about puppies. I hope she's getting plenty of snuggles from pups right now. My sincerest condolences to Judy, Charlene, Barb, and the rest of the family. The world has lost one of its bright spots. Rest in Peace Jane.

Dear family and friends, please accept my deepest condolences. May God's promises found at Acts 24:15 and Psalms 37:29 bring you comfort during this difficult time.

Several years ago a small group of women from New Covenant Church met monthly for lunch and Jane was a part of this group. We always had a good time sharing family memories and getting to know each other. Jane was a pleasure to know and to be with and I am praying for God to comfort you all and give you His peace at this time. Harriet Johnson I know you will miss her. Harriet

I met Jane and Bob over breakfast one day at The Spring House about 35 years ago. They immediately became very good friends and we used to meet often for breakfast and occasionally at my house when I had a Brit event going on! Your Mum and Dad were very special people in my life and I will love and miss them forever.........

Joe and Pam, We are so very sorry for your loss. Your Mother was a beautiful lady. It is especially hard to loose that last parent. Keep kind and fun memories of her in your hearts. You are in our very special thoughts at this difficult time. Ed Koehn and Annamae Baker

My heartfelt sympathies to the entire family in the loss of Aunt Jane. I have thought of her often and was privileged to share a special kinship with her. Having been a part of the Mollenhauer family is a gift I treasure. I recall vividly fun times at the Bob Mollenhauer farm, eating Aunt Jane's chili, playing cards, and having so much fun together! She was the first person I told that I was expecting our first daughter, Laura, because she guessed it while we were standing in the cow yard at our farm! How we both laughed! She had one of the biggest and most giving hearts. I know she loved the Lord. May God grant each of you His comfort and peace knowing she is with Him.

Our deep sympathies to the entire family. Carl remembers your mom at Farmers State Bank when he did service work there. "She was always so kind and friendly". Good friend of mine was involved with hospice when your dad was sick and shared the special relationship they had even during that very difficult time. Sympathy to you Char, remember when we worked at Luke's. The loss of another one of those special people from a very special GENERATION!!

Sad to hear of Aunt Jane's passing but so thankful you have such great memories! I always think of her when I write my full name and loved it when she called me "CarrieJane". She will be missed by many. I'm sad to think the last Lillie Sibling has passed but know that all six of them left a wonderful legacy in their children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren...Love you all!

So sorry to hear of Jane passing Joe and Pam we had some fun times with her and your dad on the farm she was a special lady. Please know if you need anything don't hesitate! Love you guys!! Caroline and Collene and family

Please accept our sympathy. We loved Jane. It was always a joy to be around her at those big family gatherings we used to have. We would like to be there to give each of you a hug but we are not traveling much right now. It is hard to lose your mother. You are in our thoughts. Love, Sharon and John
