Burial in Illinois
Burial in Illinois
Jane was buried next to her parents and maternal grandparents in the Yearsley Cemetery, Urbana, Illinois on Saturday, July 25, 2015.
The burial included a shortened version of the Remembrance held earlier in New Jersey.
Following the burial there was a luncheon at Destihl’s in Champaign, Illinois.
The next day was the 76th McCormick-Hilderbrand Reunion which several of us attended. Jane’s passing was noted at the reunion. The Photos of Jane page has a photo of the Reunion in 1954.
By strange coincidence, Jane and Betsy’s paternal grandparents house was for sale and there was an open house the same afternoon as the reunion. Betsy, Don, and Amy drove by Jane’s old house and then went to the open house.
Amy took many of the photos below.
Updated November 13, 2015. Jane’s headstone was installed on November 11. Shelly, of the Renner Wikoff Chapel, sent some photos which have been included below.
