LOVE THIS WOMAN!!
Jane Ann is the mother of one of my dearest friends--Kristine Olsen Butler. Kristine and I met at BYU . We had an intense all day 12 credit hour Spanish Class together there, went to Mexico together, were engaged together, had our children together, homeschooled together, have loved the gospel and life together. No matter where in the world she has been, our hearts have been kindred....and JANE ANN has always been there behind us, cheering us on and standing sure and steadfast as a testimony of LOVE and GOODNESS. Jane Ann's life was dedicated to being a true Disciple of Christ. Her home and yard became the "grounds" for many spiritual events --planned and spontaneous. Jane Ann would spend hours with us helping us to FEEL through our own testimonies of the Savior, helping us to plan and execute activities with our families that would build eternal memories together. Families CAN be together FOREVER. I am not the literal daughter of her womb...but I AM her daughter. My heart is thrilled that she is DONE with this earth and FREE . I have NO DOUBT that when it is my turn to cross over...Jane Ann will be there smiling with her arms stretched out still....
I'll leave girls camp to come down for the funeral.

Awww...what a great life she had. Glad the suffering is over for her though. Give my regards to the family.
My condolences to you and your friend's family.
It was good to see Don helping Josh and Spencer at the sacrament table on Sunday. Our ward was blessed that the Harris family was there this past Sunday. It was good to see Sam back at church, even though he was surviving a vicious attack caused by his sliding shorts. tic!
