Jennifer Jeanne Zane, 42, passed away at her home in Yerington on Feb. 18. Jennifer was born to Donald and Bonnie Keller on Sept. 25, 1971 in Eugene, Ore., she grew up in Mina and went to school at the Mineral County schools in Hawthorne. Jennifer moved from Mina and lived in Yerington. She had worked at the South Lyon Medical Center in the lab many years and Yerington was her home.

Jennifer loved many things in life but her children; family and animals were number one. She loved the summer trips to Oregon; the family reunions in Brownsville; her parents and all of the flowers they have at their place; and the Oregon coast. She loved the beach; her toes in the sand; playing with the kids; and the starfish she named “George”. Jennifer loved her family and all of us came before anything. Her spirit touched us; her smile filled us with joy; and she will be missed but never forgotten.

Jennifer is survived by her children, Cody Keller of Yerington and Celina Zane of Smith Valley; her granddaughter Peyton Muniz of Hawthorne; her parents Donald and Bonnie Keller of Harrisburg, Ore.; her sisters: Anna Jackson of Pinehurst, Idaho and Heather Gamble of Winnemucca; her brothers: Donnie Keller and Ronnie Keller, both of Oregon and her family in Fallon.
