We lost an amazing mother, wife, sister, grandma, and gigi. Mary Jane retired from General Electric after 30 years in Electronics Sales. Mary Jane loved to travel with her family and friends to visit different cities, small towns, beaches, and state and national parks. She was a stalwart fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Tampa Bay Bucs. If the teams were playing one another, rooting for the Steelers always prevailed. She worked the daily newspaper crossword puzzles, Suduko, and the Cryptoquote. It was not unusual for her to complete three crosswords a day. She was a fantastic cook and enjoyed having a house full of family and friends for special celebrations. She enjoyed caring for her orchids, and absolutely loved a good joke.
