She grew up in College Park, GA, and went on to attend the University of Georgia. Jane excelled in academics and was a majorette for her alma mater, graduating with a degree in education. Prior to moving to Nashville in 1971, she spent time teaching, but most enjoyed her work in the accounting and statistics field. She then transitioned into her greatest role, that of a proud wife, mother, and grandmother. Jane also enjoyed playing tennis with her friends at Richland Country Club, volunteering with Crittenton Services of Nashville, Agape Nashville, and Franklin Road Academy, and playing golf in her later years. She loved to travel, read and work puzzles, and was a true Southern lady who will be missed by all who knew her.
A private graveside service will be held for the family with the following serving as Honorary Pallbearers: Jack Smith, Sam Smith, Ben Smith, and Rob Nichols.
The family will receive friends for a celebration of life reception at The Westhaven Golf Club on Thursday, July 11, 2024, from 4 pm – 7 pm with a moment of remembrance at 5:30 pm.
