Jane Ann Boggs Core, beloved wife of Harry M. Core, died Jan. 18, 2010, after battling multiple sclerosis for over 30 years.
She was born in Franklin W.Va., the daughter of Dr. Richard and Dorothy Trumbo Boggs.
Her brothers, Richard and Gene Boggs survive, but she was preceded in death by her parents.
She is also survived by her husband of 34 years, Harry; daughter, Jennifer (Gerald) Morse; granddaughter, Alexandra of Berea, Ky.; stepsons, Brian (Caroline) Core and Kevin Core; and grandson, Ian of Brighton Colo.
Jane was a graduate of Franklin High School in West Virginia, West Virginia University and held a master's degree from Case Western Reserve University in social work.
Her career in the mental health field spanned 30 years, mostly in Lake County, where she held various positions in Family Planning, Lake County Mental Health Center and University-Laurelwood. She was also a longtime associate of Dr. Roger Sherman M.D., ending with his death in 1990.
Jane is remembered with fondness by generations of those she helped, as well as numerous co-workers who knew her as a warm, giving, and highly skilled therapist. Multiple Sclerosis ended her working career in 1999, but she was able to remain active in the equine sports with her favorite horse, Bene. She had a very wide circle of friends in that sport and will be solely missed, and throughout the wider community.
Services will be held 11 a.m. Saturday at the Johnson Funeral Home, 368 Mentor Ave., (opposite Lake Erie College), Painesville. The Rev. David R Mason PhD., Professor of Religious Studies at John Carroll University and Associate Rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Cleveland Heights will officiate.
Friends may call from 10 to 11 a.m. Saturday at the funeral home.
Memorials may be made to Crossroads or the Western Reserve Counseling.
