Jane M. Czech

February 26, 1959 - September 3, 2016

Jane Czech, 57, a lifelong resident of Toledo, passed away peacefully in her sleep on Saturday night, September 3, 2016. She was born, February 26, 1959. Jane graduated with the Rogers High School class of 1977, and married David E. Czech, of Toledo in 1981. Jane was employed at the Toledo Clinic at the time of her passing. Jane was a lover of nature, gardening, animals, bowling, reading and spending time with her kids. Jane was a mother to all, and known as Momma C. She loved to cook for her three children and all of their friends, and she always had an open door for anyone who needed a shoulder to lean on, or an ear to listen. She devoted her life to her children's sport and college activities, and she would give the shirt off her back, if it meant someone would have a better day. Jane was preceded in death by her husband, Dave Czech; father, Thomas Lancaster Sr., and mother, Betty (Kranich) Lancaster. She is survived by her children, Christopher Czech, Portland, Oregon, Nicholas Czech and Natalie (John Langenderfer) Czech; brother, Thomas (Sue Ann) Lancaster Jr., sister, Peggy (Dave) Jordan and her beloved extended family of nieces, nephews, in-laws and best friend, Roxanne Maier.
