Jane Deaton Langdon passed away on Friday, April 18, 2014 at Hospice of Wake County, surrounded by her loved ones. She was born on June 15, 1940, in Charlotte to the late Robert and Caroline Deaton. She is survived by her husband, John Maxton Langdon of Raleigh and her beloved children, their spouses and grandchildren; son Mark Langdon, his wife, Michelle, and grandson, Colt, of Raleigh; daughter Maria Lassiter, her husband, Rusty, granddaughter, Brittany Blinson, and grandsons, Zack and Luke Lassiter, of Benson; daughter Gina Langdon of Raleigh, and son Chris Langdon, his wife, Erica, granddaughter, Samantha, and grandson, Chase, of Raleigh; and brother, Bill Deaton, of Raleigh.
Jane devoted her life with steadfast love and tenderness to her family. No birthday, practice, recital, game or other occasion was too small to be missed if it involved one of her children or grandchildren, and she dearly loved every minute of it. Jane never met a stranger and was always up for a friendly chat. Her good cheer and warm spirit were cherished by all who were lucky enough to cross her path. She will be missed greatly in direct measure to the love she bestowed upon everyone she met. Jane was a Mom to all who knew her - it was her extraordinary gift and highest calling.
The family extends their deepest gratitude to Dr. Jeff Crane, who Jane loved deeply, and the staff of the Rex Cancer Center for the wonderful care they gave her throughout her battles with cancer. The family is also forever indebted to Hospice of Wake County for their tender care in her final days.
