It is with great sadness that Special Olympics Area 8 announces the passing of one of our beloved athletes, Jane-o Sum.

Jane-o was an active Special Olympics athlete who loved being part of the team and always encouraged others with her positive spirit and enthusiasm. Her kindness, joy, and friendship touched so many lives, and she will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

The family has shared that any Special Olympics athletes who would like to honor Jane-o are welcome to wear their medals or ribbons. All athletes and family are invited to come together to celebrate Jane-O's life. There will be a reserved section for athletes so they can stand together to sing and dance to “We Are Family” in her honor.

Christian Renewal has made a special "Jane-o" fund, and in lieu of flowers, we would ask that you donate to this fund. All of the money raised will be used to help our special needs community.

Please keep Jane-o’s family and friends in your thoughts during this difficult time.
