Jane was a loving and caring mother, “the BEST,” a true gift from heaven.  Her children will always be thankful for the time they were able to spend with her learning important life lessons.  Jane was friendly, kind, caring, and thoughtful of others and had many friends at the Masonic Village, where she lived.  She was active within the Masonic Village volunteering and actively creating ceramics in the studio on campus.  She was a faithful member of St. Paul’s United Methodist Church for over 60 years.  In 1989 she retired from NCR as a file clerk.  Prior to her employment with NCR she worked in the preparations department at the Savoy Shoe Company and as a seamstress for the Risser Garment Company.  Jane and her son Eugene taught ceramics and ran J&E Ceramics out of their home.  She was greatly loved and will be dearly missed.   

She is survived by 2 children, Doris J. Brandt and husband Donald E. of Elizabethtown and H. Eugene Geib and wife Polly A. of Bainbridge; and a sister-in-law, Nora Geib.
