In Nevada, Jane welcomed to her family a daughter-in-law followed by two granddaughters and a great-grandson. They meant everything to her and spent as much time together as they could. Family vacations and camping trips resulted in treasured memories. Jane had a love for others and gatherings were commonplace in her home. She lovingly prepared delicious meals that called for second helpings. If you were family, you were loved and cherished. If you were a friend, you were family. Jane was preceded in death by her parents, sister Mary Louise, and brothers Tommy, Louis, Jimmy, and Milt. Inlaws Steve and Opal Streeter, sisters-in-law Jessie Timar, and Diane Streeter and brother in laws George Bingham and Eldon Streeter.

She did not want a funeral but requested a gathering for everyone to celebrate with one another. We will honor that request at 11:30 on July 1st at the Hettinger Group Picnic Area. Lunch will be provided and we would be honored by your presence. Please bring a camp chair, a side dish if you wish, and join us in sharing memories.
