Frances Jane Spear, 88, of Sugarcreek, died Jan. 27, 2010, at Union Hospital, Dover, following a brief illness. Born March 25, 1921, in Tippecanoe, Jane was a daughter of the late John and Ora Kinsey. She graduated from Uhrichsville High School in 1938 and was a loving homemaker who was thoroughly devoted to her family. In her later years, she was employed by the Alpine Hills Museum and Gerber’s Store, both of Sugarcreek. Jane was a member of First United Church of Christ, Sugarcreek, as well as the Pythian Sisters. She very much enjoyed playing cards with her card club, going to lunch with friends, and attending Garaway High School basketball games. She was a dear, sweet soul, considerate and giving to a fault, who did not have an unkind word for anyone. Surviving are a daughter, Susan J. Spear of Lake Milton (partner, Bob Francis); sons, Benny W. Spear of Bellevue, Neb., and John R. Spear of Petaluma, Calif.; two grandsons, Gregory J. and Robert A. Spear; a great-grandson, Kai G. Spear; and several nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her husband, Robert W. “Bob” Spear, whom she married in 1939; sisters, Blanche Zimmerly, Mary Milleson, and Lucille Morris; and brothers, Ray and Floyd Kinsey. Memorial services were held Feb. 1, 2010, at Toland-Herzig Funeral Home & Crematory, Dover, with Rev. Anissa Bacon officiating.
