This message comes from someone who only knew Jane during 3 years of high school and the year after that. For this new kid in school, Jane''s acceptance, positivity and encouragement were invaluable. Although our paths have infrequently crossed since then, I''ve never forgotten the boost I got from her belief in me. I''ve really been devastated by this news and it''s hard to express how much I hurt, both for Jane and those who were close to her. Back when, Jane was someone who helped me believe in myself and my music. If she could be so effective back then as a mere high school student, I envy those of you who got to spend her adult years with her. She was a priceless, unique, caring individual. Adios, Juana. Vaya con Dios. See you when the surf''s up.
