Alice Stevenson, Jane's mother passed away, November 29, 2009 in Santa Monica, CA where the Stevenson's had lived since 1957. On June 5, her ashes were buried in a ceremony at Yearsley Cemetery, Urbana, Illinois, near her home town of Champaign, Illinois.
Jane and I traveled to Champaign a day early and visited some of the locations Jane remembered from her childhood. Then we joined the rest of the Stevenson's at the Busboom Castle that Betsy had rented as a hotel for most of the Stevenson's.
The funeral was followed by a reception.
