Jane Borrelli left this world December 14 to dwell among the stars. She was born December 19, 1933 to Mary Louise and Thomas Gascoigne. She is survived by her husband Cono R. (Dick) Borrelli, her son Cono R. Borrelli, Jr. (Dawn), son Terry Borrelli (Crissy), and her daughter Melissa Borrelli (Devin Nutter), her sister Carol Salisbury and brother Thomas Gascoigne, as well as five grandchildren. Jane was predeceased by her sister Beverly and her daughter Lisa. Jane was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, but grew up in Lorain, Ohio and graduated from St. Mary’s parochial school. After attending Fen Business College in Cleveland, Jane moved to Miami, Florida and became an Eastern Air Lines stewardess in 1957. While flying for Eastern she met her future husband Dick, an Eastern Airlines pilot. They were happily married for fifty six years, travelling the world together, raising four children, and enjoying their life of adventure. She was a dedicated duplicate bridge player and achieved Silver Life Master status, travelling frequently around the Southeast with her friends to attend tournaments (although we did notice after a while that they only travelled to tournaments in cities that had casinos!). We referred to them as “The Bridge Queens – four old broads in a Buick”. She was also a founding member of the Lake Redwine Book Club and belonged to the Lake Redwine Garden Club. Jane was a life member of The Silver Falcons, a group of retired Eastern Airlines crew members. One of her great joys was the time she spent with her family and friends on their boat, Sea Spot, cruising the California coast, fishing, and vacationing on Catalina Island. Jane idolized her grandchildren and loved having Josh, Sean, Lauren, and Charlotte living so close and being able to see them so often. They brightened her day every day and she had the love, pride, and delight in them that only a grandmother can have. Jane was a member of St. George Catholic Church, 771 Roscoe Rd., Newnan, GA (770) 251-5353.
