Jayne was nothing short of a superhero to many. Her battle with cancer started in 1991, and she courageously fought that battle the remainder of her days. Despite fighting the ugly beast, she managed to live a great life. She was passionate about quilting. Even after an arm amputation in 2007, she still continued to make quilts, sew, and inspire everyone around her. Whether she was found in her sewing room or on a retreat she was always sewing, if it was not fabric, it was relationships with family and loved ones. Jayne had 2 kids, 13 grandkids, and many great grandkids whom she loved with all her heart. Jayne worked for Utah County Government for 27 years in the Substance Abuse Division as the Clinical Records Supervisor, she later retired in 2019. Jayne was a loving member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She will always be remembered as a loving, independent superwoman.
