Love and admiration from the family of Harvey's cousin Amy Young Valentine, daughter of W. Ernest and Cecile Skousen Young.
My husband David and I and our family were in the same ward with Jane. She was such a good friend and was always asking how we were doing. My favorite memory is when our children were small we decided to start a tradition to leave a little gift with a rhyme everyday for the 12 days before Christmas on someone’s doorstep anonymously. Our kids took turns taking it to the door and then running for cover so they didn’t get caught. She did try to find out who it was and it got trickier each night. The last night on Christmas Eve we decided to do a ham dinner and ring her doorbell and be standing there. She was so thrilled when she saw us and gave everyone a hug with tears in her eyes. She told us how much it had meant to her and how she looked forward to this each night and congratulated the kids on their speed and cleverness. Now even as all our kids are adults they each remember how special they felt.
I loved how strong her testimony of Jesus Christ was and loved hearing her bear it. She was an amazing example if a faithful disciple of Christ as she served everyone in our ward by remembering birthdays, graduations, missions, and any other achievement by writing cards. What a lady! She will be missed!
Jane built bridges where others would have built walls. She welcomed me and my family into hers. Though our homes were many miles apart, she was a constant friend over many years. She and Harvey provided a loving home and family when I could not; and for this, I will always be grateful. Be at peace, dear friend; you will be deeply missed.
With love as always,
Michele
Jane was such a kind and thoughtful person to me when I had the sweet opportunity to be welcomed into their home for a brief period of time many years ago. I was strengthened by my association with her. I looked to her as a "second mom" during that time. Thank you so much for very special memories!

My family had the opportunity to be Jane’s neighbor for 6 years. My oldest son and Jane had a pretty special relationship. She called often asking for his help. My kids loved mowing her lawn and picking up her crab apples and bringing her mail into her. We loved all the cards she would write to each of us for every special occasion she heard about. My most favorite part about them was that she would put a stamp on them and mail them even though she could have put them in the mail box right next to hers:)
I also remember she called me a few months into COVID to tell me she was saying goodbye because she wasn’t going to make it through. And here she was almost 5 years later.
I know she is where she wants to be. She served a life that we all can aspire too. She will be missed. We will miss her stories and visits and cards.
When Dana (Waldo and Beverly’s youngest child) and I were first married in August 1980, we moved to Provo, where he could attend BYU. Aunt Jane was so good to us. They loaned us some furniture… a little kitchen table and a few other odds, and ends. She would often bring us fresh produce from the garden or fruit trees. Or just stop by to check up on us! I also remember her coming to visit when our first daughter was born. I think uncle Harvey was a little intimidating at first! Two good people. Hugs to all of you.
I am her nephew Luke Call. In all our interactions she was gracious and kind.
Loved Aunt Jane! And I know how much my mom and dad (Hannah and John) loved them. She gave me a bridal shower in 1986 and let all of my theater friends come, guys and girls (which was a little bit strange at the time, I'm sure). I'm happy she get to be reunited with Harvey.
I love what you said about the reunions going on. So many loved ones to greet! Especially your dad. Aunt Jane holds a special place in my heart. She was someone I leaned on when I was a young wife and mother living in Provo. Your parents allowed John and me to live in the basement until we found an apartment when we were first married. She also took care of our oldest when our second baby was born. I always knew I could depend on her love and care when I needed help. Whenever we were together, I loved visiting with her and learning from her life and her testimony of the gospel. In my eyes, she was truly an elect lady. Love and prayers for all of you at this tender time.
