She worked in several offices including the FBI in Washington, DC, the Kansas City Art Institute and Missouri DFS.

Jane was preceded in death by her parents and brother. Jane married Richard Simpson, and they shared 39 years together in the Springfield area. She is survived by her husband Richard, a stepson Michael (Jenne) Simpson of Yellville, AK, sister-in-law Saundra Allen of Webb City, MO, two nieces, three nephews, two great-nieces, and many wonderful friends who have supported her through her illness.
