Obituary, Cape Cod Times (Hyannis, MA), 24 Sep 2008:

Orleans, MA — Jane Elizabeth Adams, 71 years young, died peacefully on Sunday morning, Sept. 21, 2008, at Cape Cod Hospital.

Born in Brockton, on April 29, 1937, Jane was the daughter of the late Alton and Villa Lyon of Rockland. She graduated from Rockland High School and Colby-Sawyer College with an associate degree in science. She resided in Orleans for more than 40 years.

Jane loved her work in the family restaurants: Howard Johnson's, Adams' Rib and the Fog Cutter. But most of all, she loved spending time with her family.

She was predeceased by her brother, Peter Francis Lyon. She is survived by her sister, Priscilla Lyon; and three children, Ronald and his wife, Christina, of Mystic, Conn., Christine "Pooh" of South Yarmouth, and Scott "Scottie" of Eastham. She also has five grandchildren, Sara, Maggie, Trey and Casey Adams of Mystic, Conn., and K.J. Kenyon of South Yarmouth.

Known to many in the community as "The Cookie Fairy" or "The Bread Lady" Jane will be fondly remembered for her beautiful smile, infectious laugh, and generous spirit.

Visiting hours will be held on Friday, Sept. 26, from 4 to 7 p.m., at the Nickerson Funeral Home, 77 Eldredge Park Way, Orleans.

A Mass of Christian burial will be celebrated on Saturday, Sept. 27, at 10 a.m., in St. Joan of Arc Church, Orleans. Burial will follow in Orleans Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Cape Cod Hospital Foundation, Park Street, Hyannis, MA 02601.
