Jane B. Mashburn, of Blacksburg, went to be with her Lord on July 9, 2022 at the age of 93.

She was born in Fayetteville, N.C., on June 18, 1929, to Maurice and Rosa Biggs.  

She was a graduate of Meredith College in Raleigh with a bachelor-of-arts degree in education.

She attended Radford University where she received her library science degree with honors. She was a charter member of Harding Avenue Elementary School in 1971, serving as the school librarian until she retired in 1989.

Jane was an active member of the Belmont Christian Church and the Daughters of the American Revolution. She loved the beach and had great times with summer vacations shared with her family.       

She was preceded in death by her loving husband of 61 years, Bill Mashburn.

She is survived by her children, son Bill, Jr., and his wife, Annette, daughter Karen and her husband, Michael Zeigler, and son David and his wife, Carolyn; four grandchildren, Scott Mashburn,  and Emily and her husband, Matthew Stump,  William Mashburn and Wesley Mashburn; great-grandson Ryland Stump; and great-granddaughters Colleen and Kendall Stump and Claire and Kate Mashburn.
