Jane Louise Nimcheski, age 79, passed away on Wednesday, September 14, 2022, in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Jane was born July 20, 1943 in Birch Run, Michigan to the late Ernest and Betty Rivard. She was a wonderful lady, with a giving heart and a humble spirit, who lived her Catholic faith each day of her life.
At the beginning of her career, Jane worked as a nurse at Flint’s St. Joseph Hospital and FOH. She then became involved in her community, serving on the Burton City Council, and ultimately becoming the first female Mayor of Burton. After retiring from politics, Jane volunteered at the Genesee County Free Medical Clinic, and advocated for children of Genesee County as a Guardian Ad Litem. She served Holy Rosary Catholic Church, as the Religious Education Coordinator and as a member of its school board. Throughout her life, Jane was involved in many avenues of public service, including both the Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts, and as a member of the Burton Women's Fire Auxiliary.
In her spare time, Jane enjoyed many hobbies including knitting, crocheting and reading Danielle Steele novels. She also liked to play bingo and go to the casino. She was well-known for her excellent cooking, especially her cabbage rolls and apple pie. Jane was a loving wife, mother and Nana who was incredibly proud of her grandchildren. She was deeply loved and will be missed by her family, friends and all who had the privilege to know her.
Jane leaves behind to cherish her memory: her beloved husband of 59 years, Warren; her loving children, Michelle (Thomas) Welch-Kohn and Steven (Katie) Nimcheski; her precious grandchildren, Alexander and Alaina Welch and Brooklyn Nimcheski; and her dear sister, Joann (Ron) Duncan.
Jane is preceded in death by: her parents; her in-laws, Joseph and Gladys Nimcheski; her granddaughter, Emily Jane Welch; her brother and sister-in-law, John and Connie Rivard; and her sister- and brother-in-law, Dorothy and George Davis.
