Jane (Miller) Johnson

Jane lived her 85 years filled with many adventures with family and friends. Growing up in Glen Cove, NY, her first love was fishing. She was a professional Girl Scout for 35 years then went on to work with children & teens of chemically dependent families in Florida.

She brought faith and light to all who knew her. Jane took comfort in God, and worked tirelessly for peace for others. She touched the lives of so many with her patience, understanding and grace. She will be missed by all who knew her.
