Jane Allen of The Lake Club in Lakewood Ranch, Florida, formerly of Riverwood in Port Charlotte, FL and Horseheads, NY, lost her long battle with leukemia on October 12, 2024, with Ralph, her loving husband of 42 years, at her side.

Jane was born in Rochester, NY, the daughter of Syl and Valora (Hyde) Novelli. She was a graduate of the University of Rochester and retired from Motor Components (formerly Bendix, Facet, and Purolator) in Elmira, NY.

In addition to her parents, Jane was predeceased by her brother Paul Novelli.

In addition to her husband Ralph Allen, Jane is survived by son Peter Haight, daughter Melanie (Richard) McCann of Sebring, FL, grandson Liam McCann, stepson Todd (Ivy) Allen of Ithaca, NY, stepdaughter Tina (Steve) Gergely of Macedon, NY, step grandchildren Lauren Allen, Griffin Kiss, Camden Kiss and Emma Gergely.

The family expresses gratitude to Tidewell Hospice and Jane's part time care giver, Rose Beach-Walsh, who became a special friend to Jane in her final months.

It was Jane's wish that there be no services. In lieu of flowers please contribute to the American Cancer Society or the SPCA.
