Mary Jane had a positive and faithful attitude that drew many friends over her life.
She was easy to laugh, even at herself. Up until two months ago, you would never find her without her crochet needle working away on afghans for the homeless that counted up to 300 being donated over the years. Mary Jane loved ballroom dancing. She always said that 70 years of dancing is what kept her healthy for so long.
May she dance her dance on the clouds!
