RODGER: Jane

Peacefully and suddenly at Stratford General Hospital on March 12, 2020, Jane Elizabeth Rodger of Auburn in her 78th year. Predeceased by her loving husband Keith (2015) and best friend Buddy. Cherished mother of Rob (Judy), Lisa (Bill), Scott (Lindsay), Shawn (Jennifer), and grandmother of Justin and Emily. Also fondly remembered by many extended family and dear friends. Jane was born in Guelph, grew up in Goderich, and spent 57 years on the farm. She worked at area businesses over the years where she always enjoyed making friends with the customers she served. Jane took great pride and pleasure in raising her family instilling in them the importance of family, friends and fun. She and Keith enjoyed years of camping with annual visits to Barrie Flea Market and tractor pulls in Bowling Green Ohio. Jane will be remembered for her crazy sense of humor and unique โ€œqueenโ€ greeting.ย  A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.ย  ย Donations may be made in Jane’s memory to the Diabetes Association or the Alexandra Marine and General Hospital Foundationย  Arrangements entrust to McCallum & Palla Funeral Home, Goderich.
