Jane Allcorn

Jane Ellen Allcorn, 75, of Blue Mound, Kansas died on Monday, April 11, 2022 at her home following a long and courageous battle with cancer.  Jane was born March 25, 1947 in Council Grove, KS to Clifford and Doris (Pearson) Crozier.  She attended Osawatomie schools.  On July 14, 1962 she married John William Allcorn at the Christian Church in Osawatomie, Kansas.  He preceded her in death on August 10, 2016.  Jane worked as a custodian for Jayhawk Linn Unified School District 346 schools for many years and loved her job.  She considered so many of the staff family.  Jane had a genuine concern for the people in her life, helping in anyway she could.  Janie, as she was affectionately known, and John were members of National Street Rod Association (NSRA) and involved in car shows all over the area and loved meeting new people.  Jane enjoyed taking care of others and while doing so treated them to many delicious meals and treats.  She made the best Christmas candy ever, but her best kitchen creation was her wonderful cheesecake.
