    Jane greeted me when I arrived for my very first shift at St. Lawrence and District Ambulance Service, at the corner of Hwy #2 and #31 in Morrisburg in the late fall of 1978. She and Jim, soon become very dear friends and we enjoyed many late evenings and very early mornings together. Jane, you will always be in our thoughts and in our hearts, rest easy dear friend.
