She has left behind eight children, Diane Fish, Karen Newgent (Bob), Mark Johnson (Barbara), Michael Johnson (Shelley), Kevin Johnson, Kelly Able (Timothy), Patricia Scheurer (Paul), Mary Rose. Twenty-four Grandchildren, Dori, Raymond, Brigette, Joey, Nicole, Jilleian, Jayci, Kyle, Samatha, Lee, Joshua, Allie, Elizabeth, Theresa, Monica, John, Christopher, Margaret, Cecilia, Hailey, Whitney, Elise, Emily, and Ian.

Jane graduated from North High School in Denver and worked for R.V. Ashman M.D. and Robert Springs M.D. for thirty plus years at Federal Blvd Health Clinic.
She and Patrick were married in 1950 and raised eight children.
Through her life along with mothering eight children and working for the medical clinic she still found time to teach art at Most Precious Blood and St. Vincent DePaul grade schools, working on her stained- glass projects, spending time in her yard mowing and gardening, bowling and enjoying time in Las Vegas with family and friends.
Anyone who had the chance to meet Jane would never forget her. She is a rare and very special person and we all have a large void in our lives now that she is gone.
