    My deepest condolences to the family on the loss of Jane. I worked with her at the Huddle when I was a teen and again, when I worked at NCTC 12 or 13 years ago. She was a delight! She was very funny, always had a smile and happy and she remembered my name whenever I happened to run into her after I moved away. She was such a hard worker, too. She will be remembered in my prayers with fondness.
