Jayne's Journal

In loving memory of our beautiful daughter Jayne, who tragically left us on September 11, 2023, after silently battling anxiety and depression. Jayne was a bright soul who touched the lives of many during her time on this earth.

From her early days in the Pleasant Valley School district, Jayne discovered her passion for cheerleading in the 7th grade. It was in this sport that she found not only a talent but also a profound sense of joy and purpose. Her dedication and hard work paid off as she earned a spot on both the JV and Varsity teams in high school, a milestone that brought immense pride and happiness to her and her family.

Outside of cheerleading, once Jayne turned 16, she thrived and worked diligently at Whitey’s. Additionally, Jayne spent her last summer with us babysitting two children across the street, a role she adored and found great fulfillment in. The laughter and joy she shared with those children brought her immense happiness alongside her work at Whitey's.

Jayne was naturally able to make friends effortlessly and was a frequent host and attendee of sleepovers, always surrounded by laughter and camaraderie. She had a
creative spirit and captured countless memories through pictures, videos, TikTok’s, and Instagram posts, ensuring that those moments would be cherished forever.
