Jane arrived at Springfield College in Springfield, MA in the fall of 1967. She was a smart, friendly, athletic and funny person. She was majoring in Physical Education and was a good sport in so many ways, her sense of humor always shining through.
After Martin Luther King was assassinated on April 4, 1968, her sister and brother-in-law returned home to Framingham because Georgetown University had closed down. Jane was riding in their car in Framingham, when they were hit by another vehicle early in the morning on April 13, 1968. Initially she was taken to the Framingham Hospital, and then was moved to Massachusetts General Hospital, where she died.
