Richard, my condolences on the indescribable loss of your beautiful wife. What a loss for our entire family. Jane’s love of God, people and animals was inspirational; she leaves a hole in our hearts yet a legacy that continues in everyone she touched. Thank God we have hope of being with her again one day.
