The Jane Piano Memorial Fund

Jane Maria Piano, beloved daughter, sister, niece, cousin, and friend, passed away on Friday, August 12, 2011.   Jane was born June 9, 1963 at Holy Name Hospital in Teaneck, NJ, and spent her 48 years on earth touching the lives of everyone who met her.  Pure in spirit and generous to a fault, Jane’s physical disabilities were always greatly overshadowed by her special gifts: her infectious joyous laughter, her angelic sweetness, her generosity of spirit, her clever sense of humor, and her unfailing ability to make everyone around her feel happy. Her capacity to give love was limitless.

Jane is survived by her parents Anne and Anthony, her big brother Mark, and her big sister Claudia.

The Jane Piano Memorial Fund was established by her family immediately after her passing, as a tribute to the memory of Jane Piano. Distributions will be awarded annually to charities dedicated to advancing research, education, and treatments for Turner Syndrome, seizure disorders, and cerebral palsy, as well as those dedicated to providing support services for the developmentally disabled.

God bless our precious angel who is shining her perfect, beautiful light on all of us for eternity.
