Jane E. Weaverling


I wish to express my deep condolences in the loss of Jane. I met Jane only one time. She was having a party for, I believe, Foundation Two volunteers and staff. I was inspired by her thoughtfulness and her ability to make her home into a piece of art. I remember all the lit candles and how calm she was as her dog’s tail wagged so close to the candles that they would flicker. As a newly divorced woman, I needed to view Jane’s calm to be inspired to move forward in my own life. My parents also knew of Jane and would update me from time to time. My parent’s neighbor girl needed inspiration and a little guidance. This young girl lucked out by having Jane as one of her teachers. Jane helped her find her own unique voice through writing and poetry. Jane was a talented and caring teacher and a talented and caring human being and it was a pleasure knowing her, even if it was for just one time.

Jane has so richly blessed my life. Her spirit was admirable and inspirational. She loved her children and grandchildren so very much. She brought so much joy to others with her wonderful hospitality and compassion. I shall always remember her love of gardening and her wonderful artistic abilities. She had such a profound faith that brought richness to her life and to others. May God walk with all of you during your time of sorrow. Love, Diane and David Lerseth

To the children of Jane, John, Carol and family: Our hearts go out to all of you during this very sad time. Death is never easy, but the loss of a young special person is even more difficult. We hope you can draw strength and comfort knowing Jane is home in Heaven with her Creator and other loved ones who have gone before her. With very deep sympathy and prayers, Mary, Rick and Sean

Mrs. Weaverling was a wonderful teacher. I went to Kenwood in the early 90's, and Mrs. Weaverling was a favorite substitute teacher of mine. I remember her gumball machine very fondly. My family will be praying for you all.

To each of Jane's family I send my deepest sympathy for the loss of your mother, grandmother and sister. Having met Jane while we both received treatments at the Oncology Clinic, she was always so kind and gentle, always courageous and an inspiration. During our last conversation in November, she spoke of perhaps pursuing additional treatments though things did not look hopeful - and, as always, she was so brave and so beautiful. May you know Jane will be missed and remembered by many. She suffers no longer and will remain with you for always in her enduring love and spirit. My prayers are with you.

To Jane's family, I was saddened by the news about Jane. My heartfelt condolences to all of you. Jane was a counselor at Foundation 2 Crisis Center where I work. She volunteered with us for 5 years and I have such wonderful and fun memories of that time. Jane holds a most special place in my heart. One day we were working a shift at the crisis center and I was talking with Jane about this wonderful cat that had wandered into my yard. I'd decided to adopt him. I was struggling to find a name that fit him. After Jane and I talked about him, she suggested the name Louie (after Louie Armstrong, one of my faviorites). It really was the most perfect name for him! We appreciated everything Jane did for the crisis center (including the parties she hosted). She was extraordinarily creative and compassionate and was a gift to us all.
