Jane B. Holloway

Jane Beecher Holloway, 100, of Brittany Pointe Estates in Lansdale, PA, formerly of Paoli and Strafford, PA, passed away peacefully on December 14, 2023. Beloved wife of the late Richard G. Holloway, mother to 4 daughters; Nancy Morell of Marietta, OH, Linda Heyd of Ashland, MA, Leslie Holloway of North Woodstock, NH, and Andrea Santoro of Johnstown, PA. She is also survived by her grandchildren Kyle Morell, Kevin Morell, Matthew Morell, Benjamin Heyd, Lindsay Pothier, Allison Kinney, Daniel Kinney, and 11 great-grandchildren.

Born May 24, 1923 in Germantown, PA, Jane graduated from Germantown High School in 1941. She attended Cedar Crest College then went on to secretarial school. She met her future husband in 1948 when he called on the business where she worked. They were married on April 30, 1949, and settled first in Valley Forge, and later in Strafford, where they raised their daughters. Once their daughters were all in school, Jane worked as a teachers' aide at Strafford Elementary School. She and Dick loved to travel with their daughters, taking numerous camping trips and visiting National Parks. Jane loved vacationing at the Jersey Shore and walking the Ocean City boardwalk. She was an avid quilter and knitter. Bryn Mawr Hospital honored her after she had knit over 100 hats for newborn babies.

Jane and Dick were members of Trinity Episcopal Church, Gulph Mills, for over 70 years. She was part of the group of women who conceived the idea for the Trinity Nursery School, which is still in operation today.

Jane's family would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to the staff of Brittany Pointe Estates and ACTS Hospice, for their kind and compassionate care.

A memorial service will be held at Trinity Episcopal Church on January 20, 2024, at 11am. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Trinity Nursery School, 966 Trinity Lane, King of Prussia, PA 19406.
