Jane was the epitome of a gracious host, community service volunteer and dedicated wife. Her radiant smile filled the room and her laugh was contagious. She left an indelible mark of kindness and generosity on all who knew her. My heart feels your sadness, and my prayers are with all of her family. Jane's sweet spirit will always be with us.

It was difficult to hear the news of Jane's passing from Janice Cooper's telephone call. I was friends with Jane for over 35 years. We were both charter members of the Mimosa Garden Club here in Columbia. The wonderful years with Jane & Jack, along with all our many friends will be held close to my heart forever. My love and prayers are with you .... B.J. (Mrs. Gerald E.) Blanchard, Columbia, SC

To each family member of Jane Spencer

Jane was a special and loved friend. We shared many occasions together such as Thanksgiving dinner with all our family. We enjoyed church gatherings and many events. We shared many phone calls and a visit last summer since her move to Kentucky. My heart is broken by her sudden death. Our prayers are with all family members during this difficult time.

Prayers and Love forever,
Jim and Naomi Perryman
