1947 – 2020
It is with much sadness that the family of Jane Barth announces her death on April 2, 2020.
Jane was born 11 July 1947 in Oak Park, IL to Francis L. and Marian F. (Bobby) Ohmer. The family moved to Denver in 1950 and settled in the Park Hill neighborhood where Jane attended Denver Public Schools, graduating from East High School in 1965.
Jane loved to sing and sang in choirs from the time she was 5 years old through college and most recently sang with choirs at her church. Growing up, Jane was a Girl Scout and a member of Job’s Daughters Bethel 4. Through that organization she marched with a competition precision drill team.
Jane met her husband, Bob, at Mesa College in Grand Junction. They moved back to the Denver area and had two children, Christopher Barth (Bonnie Harkins) of Thornton and Barbara (Stanley) Foster of St. Mary’s, PA. Throughout her work career Jane worked in bookkeeping/accounting and customer service.
Jane was preceded in death by her parents and several aunts, uncles, and cousins. Besides her husband and children, Jane is survived by her grandchildren Tyler Barth of Grand Junction, Cody Foster of Lakewood, Sloan Foster of Parker, Amanda and Wyatt Foster of St. Mary’s,PA, her sister Dorothy Holladay (Gary Peterson) of Hotchkiss, sisters-in-law Kathleen McBride of Denver and Jeanne Snell of CA, numerous cousins, friends, and extended family members.
Over the years Jane and Bob enjoyed traveling in their motorhome, camping and boating. Along with singing, Jane also found enjoyment in reading, genealogy research, hand work, watching movies and in earlier years training her dogs.
In lieu of flowers please make a contribution to the American Cancer Society or a charity of your choice. Burial Service will be set at a later date in the future.
