Dear Lenny, know how much you are felt as family.  We are so grieving with you at this time of loss.    \

I shall always remember Jayne’s warm smile and friendly greetings as I walked on the sidewalk past the Burns’ patio here at Luther Acres.  —  And for Lenny I share these words of Jesus:  “Now you are sad, but I will see you again and your hearts will be filled with gladness.”  (John 16:22)
Peace and Love  . . .

Oh how my heart is broken.  My beloved Aunt Jayne, how i would have loved to be able to visit with you one more time. But my heart, though greiving, is not hopeless,  for i know God had arranged angels to carry you to your new home where you will now experience the all encompassing peace and unconditional, all consuming love of our heavenly Father. Until we are able to reunite with you,  our hearts are forever filled with beautiful memories… times we stayed with you and experienced the amazing love you had for us spilling out of your heart. I can still feel your love today,  when I close my eyes and remember you looking so tenderly in my eyes. Your sweet voice telling me how sorry you were for the heartache I experienced in my life. You probably never knew how much your love healed my heart and wounds. You were like a sweet angel wrapping your arms around my heart. You are such a special human… one of the most kind compassionate loving person I will ever know. Until we meet again,  you will never be far from me.  Just a prayer away… my special guardian angel.  Thank you for loving me…I love you always 💓

Jayne had a heart as big as all outdoors. She was known as someone who often sported  knee high stockings, eating desserts with the smallest of forks and the penmanship of a 4th grader. She also had to ardent almost creepy admirers in my brother Bob and I.
The Sunday family dinners were the stuff of legends and admiration.
