 In loving memory of Jane Ellen (Gautschy) Taylor, born on October 19th, 1937 in Long Beach, California to John and Leola Gautschy. Jane passed peacefully in her sleep on September 24, 2023 at the age of 85. 
Jane is survived by her children, Cathy Speaks, Robin (Bill) Taylor Barrett and Todd (Debbie) Taylor, six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, all of whom were a source of immense pride and joy in her life. Jane was preceded in death by her high school sweetheart and husband of 51 years, Donald Richard Taylor and son-in-law Brian Speaks. 

Jane was a successful realtor for 25 plus years helping countless families find their dream homes. Her friendly and outgoing personality not only served her well in real estate but enabled her to strike up conversations and make many friends. Jane's love for travel took her and her husband to many new places where they created unforgettable memories. 

Jane will be deeply missed by her family and friends. Her memory will forever live on in our hearts.
