Mary Jane Sondregger

Mary Jane Sondregger went to spend eternity with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Wednesday, August 31, 2011. In addition to caring for her family and friends, Mary Jane filled her 85 years of life with the pleasures of cooking, sewing, managing her own ceramics business, and supporting missionary work. Although Alzheimer's robbed her of those skills, she continued to bring joy and love to her family and caregivers. She was preceded in death by her loving husband of 60 years, Elmer, by her daughter Marva Dawn Lombard, and by her grandson James A. Lombard. Surviving family members include her children David and Karen Sondregger, H. Gayle Sondregger Martinez; grandchildren Stephan Sondregger, Chris Sondregger, Joe Martinez, Vanessa Strickland, Janai Martinez, and Jason Lombard; great grandchildren Jonathan, Eisley, Soren, Kaitlyn, Courtney, Kristen, Colten, Reese Gayle, Ella Grace and many nephews and nieces. Friends are invited to join her family in remembering Mary Jane on Tuesday, September 6, 2011 at 10:00 A.M. at Reese Funeral Home. The family requests that memorials be sent to the Alzheimer's Association, Florida Gulf Coast Chapter, 14010 Roosevelt Blvd., #709, Clearwater, FL 33762 or www.alz.org/FLGulfCoast.
