Jane Conibear (21 Feb 1961 - 5 Mar 2023)

Thought it would be good to have links from the music at Janes Celebration of life here. The celebrant, Elaine, had difficulty playing db’s Wild is the Wind, it refused to play, so Jane’s music therapist, Maria, received a request to sing some of it, which she did!
These are links to You Tube – so it will probably mean clicking – the ‘skip ad’ button.
May you be well and happy – Alistair x


Stan Getz - One note Samba -----------As people arrived

One Jane had also chosen for her dad - Pete.

As she had chosen -The Smiths - There is a light that never goes out.
(I remember sometimes singing this to her when she was driving!)

Chosen by Jane -this is a hypnotic full version 'If I could sleep for ever, I would forget about everything.'

Angel. Jane liked some Jimi Hendrix This is a tender one, for her.

Etta James – Sweet little Angel - Another fave of Jane’s. This played later, along with some of the above, in the background as we chatted

Lastly, a movie – when you have time! Jane was moved by another resident of Essex who lived with a diagnosis but more about joy of life. Which Jane also, of course, had!

Jane’s family would like to thank everyone who attended her Celebration of life at Saras tea Gardens yesterday. It was perfect for her.
A huge thank you to Elaine our Celebrant who went over and above to make the occasion very special and completely captured Jane’s essence, spirituality and kindness, I think we’d all agree that Jane would’ve loved it.
Thank you Alistair for all your help with the playlist and more, plus stepping up as Elaine’s assistant for the blessing.
Big thanks to Sara’s tea gardens for enabling us to hold the celebration at their beautiful cafe, a favourite spot of Jane’s to visit on her regular walks. Thank you to all the staff, you were brilliant!
And a big thank you to Maria, Jane’s sound healer, your care during her final weeks was so much appreciated, as was your beautiful voice yesterday when you stepped up to sing Wild is the wind, a magic moment, thank goodness for technical hitches….
And finally thank you all for being such wonderful friends to Jane xx

In memory of Jane my wonderful neighbour. Loved all our chats especially about cats xx RIP xx

Jane had a unique and wonderful way of seeing the world. She had the kindest heart and the quirkiest sense of humour, and that meant time spent with her was always a joyful experience. I will miss her, but always think of her smiling ❤️

Just a heads up re parking tomorrow, I’m sure many attending know Leigh old village better than me but parking is limited and very busy on a Saturday so I would give yourselves plenty of time to find a parking space.

For Jane’s friends and family who are unable to attend on Saturday I’ve set up a Zoom meeting link, see below, hopefully it will behave and work on the day enabling you to join us, best wishes

We are looking forward to seeing Jane’s friends, colleagues and family to celebrate her life at Sara’s Tea gardens on Saturday. Can you let me know if you have any specific dietary needs, vegan, gluten, etc.,

In loving memory of a dear, sweet lady who calmed you with her presence and positive view of the world… You will be missed my friend…

I came across a quote from Emily Dickinson which made me think of Jane.
“Unable are the loved to die for love is immorality”

I still have the forget-me-not mug you gave me dear Jane. You will never be forgotten by anyone whose lives you touched or those you healed and you will be especially remembered by your family and friends lovely lady.

Dearest Jane, Thinking of you on Easter Sunday.
Miss you so much. We will never forget your joy and love of life. Take the love and laughter with you dear friend.

Love Light & Peace dear Jane xxx

Jane was a lovely lady. Her ability to care and support others despite her own considerable health problems was
amazing. I was grateful for her kindness to me during my husband long illnesses.
We all miss her during our storytelling gatherings.it was a privilege to know her.

Sending love and condolences from the staff of Barlow and Fields coffee shop in Leigh. Jane was a customer that we all took a shine to, her warmth and gentle smile coupled with her kind, wise words, left an impression on us all. Jane, we will miss making your coconut cappuccino (with no chocolate). Love to your family and friends x
