   It has been a honor getting to know Mary Jane the last few years while at NODC. My mom enjoyed getting to know her and listening to her share joy with her musical talents. She will forever be remembered. We shared some sweet memories last night of her.

   Knew Mary Jane for many, many years and had some pretty awesome times with her and she was a one of a kind nobody like her and I will never forget. May she be playing her good old music for people just in a different place. May you rest in peace. Love you always.

   Although I didn't get to sing with Mary Jane and the polka choir, I enjoyed listening many times when they sang at the churches in the area. I was able to join them for her last performance with the polka group at Downsville. Now Mary Jane can join the heavenly choir and sing along with Virginia and Bill Webb.
   Requiescant in Pace, Mary Jane.

    Mary Jane was such a force at St Henry parish for the choir and also for the traveling group that performed at many different places around the area. So enjoyed her playing and composing too. May she rest in peace!

    MaryJane always was a great person to be around. When I was young before I even knew Mary & Shari her daughters. Mom and I would travel down to Club 10 outside of Durand on Sunday afternoons and listen to Ray's Concertina. We'd dance up a storm! She was alot of fun to be around. She'll be missed. Hugs to the family.

    My deepest sympathy to the Singerhouse family. So sorry for the loss of your loved one. She will always be remembered and not a Packer game go by that I wouldn't think of dedicated fan MaryJane cheering them on. Now NASCAR that put the TV volume way up, she was ready to race and win. She will be missed so very much by all, RIP Mary Jane.
