Together they raised three daughters, Mary Worcester (Denny) Newell, Sue Worcester (Ron) Staul, Gail Worcester (Don) Klise and one son Winthrop Gibb (Rhonda Delaney) Worcester.   They were thrilled with the births of each of their ten grandchildren:   Jeff Jones, Debbie Zeela, Lara Kurth (Geoff Butler), Julia (Nick) Fossati, Andy Klise, Steve Klise (Amelia Hancock), Heidi Klise, Skye Worcester, Kian Worcester, Kenna Worcester, as well as their great grandchildren Austin Jones, Bryan Jones, Keeley Zirkler, Kayla Zirkler, Cora Fossati and Brennan Fossati.

We will miss her wit, charm, and quick infectious smile.   With a twinkle in her eye, Jane always said, œLife is short.   Eat dessert first. 
