Mrs. Brown was my first grade teacher at Natura. When Natura closed we went to Twin Hills where she taught 3rd and 4th grade so I had her again those grades. She was my favorite teacher of all time. She was the best story reader. She could read to the class and transform you right there as if you were in the story. I'm sure she will be very missed my her family. So many good memories, though.

"Miss Brown" was one of the sweetest women I've had the pleasure of being educated by. She was a very kind, understanding lady. Her bright, sunny disposition will always be remembered by all who knew her. She will be missed by many.

Jane was my sister-in-law for many years when we were married to brothers. I still think of her as my sister-in-law and my children still refer to her as "Aunt Jane." She was often the quiet one at family gatherings but she didn't need to say much to know her children adored her and were never far from her side. When they needed 'correcting' she did it with a sweet, firm voice and Greg, Paula, and Steph knew she meant business. I never got the hang of that and always ended up yelling orders at my children, all the time wondering how Jane did it. I suspect she controlled her classroom in much the same way, being gently firm but always loving. She had a killer smile - her whole face lit up and laughter was never far behind, I love that she was a QVC junkie like me. To look at her one wouldn't think she was very strong - she was petite - but she faced more dark times than she deserved with hidden strength and grit and moved on. I will remember her quiet grace, her kindness, and her tremendous love for her family. Rest in peace in our Father's loving arms, dear Jane.
With heartfelt sympathy,
Jane was a sweet Christian and we will miss her at Baptist Village.
