It is with much grief and heavy-heart that I must announce the loss of one of our Administrators, Jane Ann (XLR8).
At 6:45am this morning Jane Ann lost her battle with cancer and moved on to a much better place, free of pain and suffering.
Jane Ann was a valuable member of our community for nearly 8 years, and through her loving heart, kindness and ability to help new members, she quickly became a valuable member of our staff here. She often resided in the New Member Introductions forum, C4 and C5 forums, and the Site Help and Feedback forum. She was always quick to welcome new members to our community and point them in the right direction as to how the forums function and where they might find answers to their questions throughout the site. When it came to Moderating these forums, she was always fair, professional and saw the best in everyone. She was a true southern Belle from Mississippi and had the manners and professionalism that touched everyone she came in contact with.
For me personally, her loss has hit me hard.
I met Jane Ann several years ago at one of our first CruiseFests in Bowling Green. She had a loud, cheerful voice, and a hearty laugh that you could not soon forget. As she often did here in the forums, she was quick to jump behind the desk and help out with welcoming the members as they arrived at the event.
Over the years, she went above and beyond just moderating the forums and actually helped me test various sections of the CAC site before rolling them out. Her innocent, objective view was always most welcome and she was always so happy to help and watch the CAC grow and mature. Through emails, private messages and occasional phone calls, we shared many laughs and a few tears.
Most of all, she was always there with encouraging words when I was feeling down or having issues with the site. She believed so strongly in the Corvette Action Center and my goals and dreams for the site. She shared in my joy and happiness or my sadness and tears whenever it came to dealing with CAC-related issues.
She was not just a member or an Administrator here - she was a friend, a confidant, and family. Her loss of presence here will be felt for a long time to come. I'm sure she is in a much better place now - probably at the gates, welcoming others as they arrive just as she did here.
Jane Ann: you will forever remain a part of this community and this web site and I am truly honored to have had the chance to meet and work with you over the years. Hopefully you are enjoying your Corvette up there as you did here and always remember girl....walk softly but carry a big light saber!
Rest in Peach Jane Ann...
