In 1986 she married Mike Repasky in Dallas, Texas. After Mike’s death, Jane began her 16 year relationship with Jason England until his passing.

Jane was a very caring person and a life-long caregiver. She helped raise her siblings and later got much enjoyment out of helping raise her grandchildren. She worked various places as a Certified Nursing Assistant, most recently at West Ridge Quality Care & Rehab in Clarinda, until her retirement.
