Jane Moeller passed away July 16, 2024, in Alamosa, CO.

Jane, the daughter of Helen and B Howard Padgett, was born in Walterboro, SC. She loved to

share with everyone that she was a leap year baby. She worked that to her advantage as when

there was a task she didn't particularly want to do, she was "too old". However, if it was

something fun, she was just a "youngster"! She also enjoyed the fact that she and her daughter

Amber turned nine years old the same year!

After high school, Jane attended a two-year program at Columbia College in Columbia, SC.

This helped her land a secretarial (stenographer) position on the Robins Air Force Base in

Warner Robins, GA. Here she met her neighbor, a navigator named Frank Moeller. Love

blossomed and she literally married the boy next door!

Once Frank left the Air Force, the couple moved to Alamosa, CO so Frank could obtain his

teaching degree. They stayed in Alamosa and had their daughter, Amber. Jane loved reminding

Amber that the doctor first diagnosed her as an ulcer and that her rambunctious antics were

what finally led her back into the work force, maybe the doctor was correct in his first

diagnosis! Jane took a position with the Alamosa Court System in 1972, eventually retiring as

the Clerk of Combined Courts in 1999.

Jane was young at heart and had many adventures during her lifetime. She lived in Germany

for a while, skiing the Alps and touring castles! Frank Jane and Amber shared a close bond as

all three were only children. Once Amber started showing horses, they all got involved and this

led to many more adventures and many fond memories were made.

Jane was a kind, patient and loving person who was always ready to help family and friends. It

was mentioned recently that she was known to the younger Air Force wives as "Mom Jane," a

moniker she also embraced from several of Amber's friends.

Jane was preceded in death by an infant brother, her parents Howard and Helen Padgett, her in-

laws Pauline and Gilbert Moeller, and her husband Frank Moeller. She is survived by her

daughter, Amber, several furry grand babies, as well as family and close friends.

Jane was buried next to Frank in a private ceremony in Delta, CO. A memorial/celebration of

life will be held on Saturday, October 5, 2024 at 1pm at The Society Hall in Alamosa.
