Jane was born on December 8, 1938 in Ville Platte, Louisiana and was a 1956 graduate of Ville Platte High School. For 31 years, she was a secretary by trade having worked in the offices of Dr. Don McGee, Dr. Ranson Vidrine, Dr. Charles Fontenot, and Dr. Nick Cantu. Jane was active in her community. She was a member of the Woodmen of the World for 33 years, an RV Camping Club, the Louisiana Cotton Pickers, and her rosary group. In her spare time, Jane enjoyed baking bread, dancing, entertaining, and camping. Her greatest pleasure was that of spending time with and taking care of her family.

Carroll Richard of Ville Platte, two sons Joey Richard and wife Sonya of Toledo Bend and Ricky Richard and wife Elvie of Houston, Texas, four grandchildren Brandon Richard and wife Rana of Crowley, Jacob Richard and Christie Widdle of Willis, Virginia, Carson Richard and Emily Richard both of Houston, and three great grandchildren.
