Jane E. Kinley died at her home, on March 4, 2023. Born to James and Marian (nee Donham) Kinley on August 3, 1946. Jane is survived by so many family and friends who love her dearly. Some of those family and friends are her sister-in-law Diana (nee Moore) Kinley, sister Tina Dennemann (Joe), nieces and nephews Jimmy Kinley (Tracy), Mary Dennemann (Chris Hurlburt), Joey Dennemann (Cheryl), Elizabeth Dennemann (Bobby Baker), Anna Dennemann (Adam Foster), Sarah Dennemann (Bobby Beahr), and great nieces and nephews Audrey Hurlburt, Evie Hurlburt, Katie Dennemann, Francis Dennemann Baker, and Keith Foster. Jane is preceded in death by her parents, brother Jim, and nephew John Kinley.
Along with her family and friends, Jane leaves behind hundreds of students that she taught at Brantner Elementary School in West Clermont Local School District. For many decades, she was a beloved kindergarten and 1st grade teacher who directed countless elementary school plays, made creative costumes on a shoestring budget, had impeccable penmanship, and encouraged students to strive for their best. Even at home she never missed an opportunity to throw in a spelling or reading lesson, and prided herself on collecting and sharing as many children's books as she could. She believed reading, writing, and arithmetic were the key to success, and countless children have benefitted from her guiding hand.
