Jane R. Taylor Sheridan, 93, passed away early Saturday morning, May 6, 2017 at The Commons in Auburn, where she had been living since 2015. Born in Marcellus, she and her husband, Chuck, who were married for 65 years, lived in Skaneateles Falls for most of their married life, and spent their last years together at The Gateway in Skaneateles. Jane worked at the Skaneateles Central Schools for many years. Jane loved to crochet, cook, bake, play cards, play the slots at Turning Stone, and most of all, spend time with friends and family. She had a wonderful sense of humor, was very kind, and generous. She was a member of St. Mary’s of the Lake Church, and Valentine Meyer Post 317 Ladies Auxiliary. She was a beloved Mom, Gramma, and “Gigi.” Jane is survived by her daughter, Patti (Doc) Rising, and sons Chuck (Patty) and Gary (Donna) Sheridan.

She was pre-deceased by her husband in 2013, her sisters, and brother. Her former neighbors on School Street will remember her best for her popcorn balls every Halloween.
