I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of our dear friend Jane. One of my fondest memories is when I was 25 and had finished backpacking in 2001, shortly after 9/11, she took me in for over a week until I could return to America. I had been traveling Europe for 6 months by myself and ended my tour in Brighton, England with Jane! Jane drove me around and we toured Brighton and some of the smaller towns nearby while I waited to get approval to come home (flew on an AA pass which had been eliminated for quite some time after 9/11). Jane brought me to her parents house and told her parents the only special request for food I had after all my travels was vegetables, as they were hard to come by during my travels :) They made me every vegetable you can imagine and it was wonderful! Jane kept me safe, fed, and made me laugh for days until I could return home. She was such a smart, tough woman and funny as heck and even though she was my parents good friend (the Groffman's), she was part of our family. She will be missed and I will always remember the kindness she showed me at that turbulent time.

Our condolences to Jane's mom and the entire Geerts family. We always considered Jane a part of our family. A wonderful and loving person. She'll be missed.
