Jane Lloyd Fund Clambake, Editorial by Elyse Harney


The Lakeville Journal - July 20, 2023

July 30 at our Salisbury Ski Jump will be another of the welcome Jane Lloyd Clambakes put on by family and friends of Jane as a Fund Raiser for the generous fund established in Jane's honor to allow cancer patients to remain in their homes by providing financial help for day-to-day living expenses. Jane was diagnosed with terminal breast cancer but wanted

to die in her beloved home surrounded by her gardens. The incredible love and care of her family and friends allowed Jane to do this. The Berkshire Foundation has allowed these same family and friends to extend this assistance to others in Jane's circumstances.

I can still see Jane with her beautiful auburn red hair in my garden. She created a shade garden for me which I can see from my kitchen window. The trillium that have multiplied and thrived so beautifully remind me of Jane so much.

The Jane Lloyd Fund is a true example of how Salisbury has always been an example of neighbor helping neighbor. We are so blessed to have our Volunteer Fire Department, Volunteer Ambulance service and so much more available here. Put July 30th on your calendars, buy your tickets now and join in a celebration of Jane's spirit and the caring spirit of Salisbury. If you can't be there on the 30th, be there with a donation to the Jane Llovd Fund.
