Our deepest sympathy to Lew and all members of the Thurston family. We are all very saddened to hear of Mary Jane's passing. While we will not be able to attend services, we will be with you all in spirit. We are sending all of the family all our love and condolences. God bless Mary Jane, and may the Lord Jesus' love and acceptance welcome her spirit to the endless and glorious kingdom of God's Heaven above us. In His name, we pray that Mary Jane and her family members find peace and solace knowing that her soul is safely at rest with the Lord.
Old school pal of your mom and wife from LaGrange. Lived down the street and walked or rode bikes to junior high and high school LTHS together. Did manage to get to one reunion with MJ. Always enjoyed Xmas letters from your family.
Do remember Bobby and his health struggles and brother David
Hugs and prayers to all and thanks for putting the info on Facebook. Brings back many wonderful memories with your mom and wife
In God’s love

Dear Lew, Linda, Karen and Jill and your families,
I share in your sadness that Mary Jane’s time on earth has ended and pray that wonderful and enduring memories of her will fill your hearts with love and gratitude as you slowly adjust to the hardest of life’s realities. It is a blessing that her grandchildren got to know and make memories with her...and that all of you will continue to see her in them in the years ahead. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
Warmest condolences to each of you,

Lew and girls,
Your mother was there for me years ago. Jill was in preschool in Pennington with one of mine, Lorena I think. We played a lot of tennis at the Pennington School before there were indoor courts.. It was cold, but we had fun. There was a connection to Ho-Ho-Kus where my husband grew up. May Mary Jane rest is peace and may you have the grace and strength to accept her loss.
I wish we’d stay in touch.
