Jane loved to travel and explored all of the USA with her best friend and husband, Tom Harrison.
Jane also played piano and played at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church for many years.
Jane was an independent lady with a heart of gold, she wore many hats in her lifetime. She loved her family and was a devoted mother to her children, grandchild, and great-grandchildren.
