Jane is preceded in death by her parents; husband, Phillip and son, Wesley. She is survived by her daughter, Janice Wilson and husband, Kevin; grandson, Alex, all of Odessa. Janice, known to us as Jane, was a wonderful person who was committed to the service of others. She was known for putting others above herself, and wouldn't just tell you, but show you her love. She graduated from the University of Oklahoma School of Nursing in 1959 and her wonderful ways extended to her patients. Jane loved being a nurse. Throughout the years, she had the opportunity to work with some amazing people, and loved to share in their lives. She finished her working career at the Family Clinic in Tatum, New Mexico. Jane met the love of her life, Phillip Jones on April 20, 1962 and they were married forty-nine years until his death. To their union was born two children, Wesley and Janice. She was an avid OU fan and loved her Oklahoma football! She was a devoted grandmother to her only grandchild, Alex, and delighted herself in attending as many of his events as possible. Jane enjoyed making things and sewing and had a love for gardening. She would put her lipstick on and happily head outside to turn the dirt in her garden! She always had a smile. A memorial service to celebrate the life of Jane will be held Saturday, June 30, 2018, 10:00 a.m. at the First United Methodist Church in Tatum, NM. It is the request of Jane's family that all who attend do so in bright attire as she loved color!
