Jane L. Hallowell

Jane Hallowell, daughter of Matthew and Amelia Kozik, native of Greenfield, MA, long term resident of North Fort Myers, FL and Greenville, SC, completed her journey home to heaven after a long life well lived, on September 7th in Greenville, SC.

Jane was predeceased by her husband of 63 years, Norman Hallowell, son Mark Hallowell and sister Louise Clayton. She is survived by 5 children: Leslie & (Michael) Vine, Greenville, SC, Cheryl Currier, Greenville, SC, Scott & (Diane) Hallowell, Arden, NC, Gary & (Annemarie) Hallowell, Greenfield, MA and Eric & (Lynn) Hallowell, Greenfield, MA, 12 dearly loved grandchildren: Nicholas Davis, Joshua Vine & Alyssa Vine-Hodge, Aaron & Evan Banville, Matthew & Keith Hallowell, Katelyn Cleary & Terra Cadran, James, Jeffrey and Joel Hallowell, and 9 precious great-grandchildren: Addy & Isaiah Hallowell, Amelia & Evan Banville Jr., Kacie & Kallie Cadran, Corrin & Emerson Cleary and Dean Hallowell.

Once asked by a grandchild if she had a motto to live by, Jane replied without hesitation: Two mottos. Put God first, and never stop learning.

After graduation from Greenfield High School in 1945, she was a a WWII plane spotter and could still identify the planes at 97 years old. As a brave young mother, she traveled cross country in a station wagon and tent camped with 6 children for months at a time, instilling in all of them a desire to travel, to learn about our land and to enjoy the beauty of creation. Jane and Norm’s later travels took them all over the US, Europe and the Caribbean. In her retirement, she learned to paint and golf earning awards in both. She studied the Bible, history, literature, sports, politics, languages and various topics of interest. In Florida, she was a docent at Echo’s Global Mission to provide hope against hunger.

Jane lived out her Christian faith with a genuine love for those who knew her and the hope that all will come to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.

There will be an internment service in Greenfield at the convenience of the family.
