Marilyn "Jane" Herbert, 83, passed away peacefully in her sleep July 12, 2016.
Jane was born Nov 23, 1932 in Lancaster, NY.
Jane was the daughter of the Late David and Beatrice Menzies. She was a 1950 graduate of Lancaster High.
Jane
loved to quilt, she taught quilting classes, took family fishing trips to
Canada and was an avid fan of IU Basketball and Colts Football. She
could often be heard hollering at the TV about bad calls or commentators
she thought were biased against her team. It was her family, her
children and 12 Grand Children, who lovingly referred to her as their "G",
and her 12 Great Grand Children that she made sure she had quarters for
each of their Birthdays, that she loved the most.
It was later in her
life, after the retirement of her husband Chuck Herbert, that she
received her license as a lay minister. This was one of the most
meaningful times of her life and when her faith and her love for her
Church became the strongest. She truly loved her time filling the pulpit
of area churches.
"G" was preceded in Death by her parents David and
Beatrice Menzies, her husband of 53 years Chuck Herbert, and daughter
Shelley J. Mehling.
She is survived by her Daughter Suzie J. Hobbs
(Mike) Daughter Patti Rathke (Rod) and Son Chuck Herbert Jr (Nancy). She
is also survived by her Brother Harvey Menzies (Ann) of Lancaster, New
York.
