Born to Donald and Peggy Ann Soutiere in Sherbrooke QC, April 29, 1949. She moved to Victoria BC, with her family in 1966. Jane passed away peacefully on December 28, 2024 at Sunset Lodge.
Jane enjoyed working at the Pacific Forestry Centre where she served for 50 years.
Remembered as a caring and compassionate sole, she volunteered at many charities and clubs including the 4-H South Island Malahat Rabbit and Cavy Club, Salvation Army, United Way and Saint Mary the Virgin Anglican Church. In her retirement, she knitted blankets and washcloths to donate to those in need through The Compassionate Resource Warehouse.
She will be greatly missed by her siblings, Nancy (Ed), Wendy (Dwight), Mary and Tim; children, Jennifer (Jay) and William (Deanna); and grandchildren, Tayleb and Maria and many nieces and nephews.
A memorial service will be held on Friday, January 31, 2025 at 2:00 PM in the Sequoia Centre at McCall Gardens, 4665 Falaise Drive, Victoria, BC. In lieu of flowers, the family has requested donations to the charities and clubs where Jane volunteered.

Dear Jennifer and William and Jane’s extended families,
Sorry to hear about Jane’s passing. My husband and I also worked with her at PFC. She was a kind, quirky, and generous person. May she rest in peace.
