I am so sorry to read this about Jane passing. My condolences and prayers to her family. Strangely, I woke up this morning thinking of Jane. She encouraged me on the phone, when I called regarding a position opening at the North Springfield plant to come in and apply or at least to fill out the application form . I was hesitant but she was so nice and finally I said "OK" and drove down -filled it out and was hired a few days later. For many years, we worked together and I never forgot how kind Jane was to me. She will be missed! Sincerely, Carol S. Peebles
