DAVIS FAMILY
FUNERAL HOME
DEWEY, WASHINGTON CO, OK
(permission granted)
Jane DeShazo, 85, peacefully passed away and entered her Heavenly home
on Tuesday, Aug. 20, 2019.
Jane was born Sue Jane Spaulding on Dec. 22, 1933, in Bartlesville, OK.
Jane grew up in Bartlesville and graduated from College High School in
1951. She met the love of her life Kirk DeShazo when she was 17. Both
had noticed each other around town now and then. Kirk was from Dewey so
their paths didn't cross often. Jane loved to swim and spent a lot of
time at Sani Pool. Her first glimpse of Kirk was at the pool when a
little boy tapped her on the shoulder and handed her a popsicle. He then
pointed to Kirk across the pool and said, "That boy bought this for
you." That was the beginning of a great love affair. They were married
March 13, 1954, at the Dewey First Christian where they were members for
life.
Kirk joined the Marines and was stationed in California while Jane moved
to Oklahoma City and worked for Kerr-McGee. She shortly joined Kirk as
soon as his ship returned to the US. Once his duty was over and Kirk was
honorably discharged, they moved to Norman where they lived for several
years and had their two children there. Once Kirk graduated from
pharmacy school they moved to Dewey. Jane enjoyed being a stay-at-home
mom to David and Julie while Kirk worked as a pharmacist in the family
business. Jane was an officer in the Music & Literature Club. She also
started a library at their church. She served on the benevolence
committee for many years at church, hosted many youth group parties, and
opened her home and made meals for special speakers coming to the church
for Revivals. She was a Sunday School teacher and youth group sponsor.
Jane also served on the board of the Don Tyler Library for 10 plus
years.
Swimming was Jane's favorite hobby. She continued to swim up until two
years ago. She passed her love of water onto her children and
grandchildren. Jane also loved to read and loved a good mystery.
Christmas was her favorite holiday and Jane was known by her family to
"go overboard." Most of all, Jane loved just hanging out with her
family. She loved to laugh and always kept her family in stitches with
her humor. She never took herself too seriously and many times would be
the butt of her own jokes and shenanigans.
Jane was preceded in death by her husband Kirk DeShazo, her parents
Charles and Isabel Spaulding, her sister Anne Mnich, her sister Kay
Stanfill, brother-in-law Tom Stanfill and nephew Greg Stanfill.
Jane is survived by her son David DeShazo and Tracey of Silver Lake, KS,
and grandchildren Rachelle, Cohner and Dawson. Also survived by her
daughter Julie Cole and Jeff of Bartlesville, and grandchildren Jake and
Jacey. Jane is also survived by three great grandchildren, Kaylee,
Landry and Adelle, with two more arrivals expected this fall. Jane
leaves behind many nieces and nephews as well.
