Jane’s Obituary
Jane Seng, loving wife, mother, grandmother and sister passed away in the early morning hours of April 4, 2024. She was born on the island of Maui, Hawaii, on April 29, 1941, to Olive and Dr. George von Asch. She married the love of her life on July 2, 1960. They went on to have two children. In 1975, Jane and her family moved to St. Joseph, Michigan. Jane worked for the Benton Harbor and Saint Joseph Schools for many years. She was well known by many of the teachers and staff of the Saint Joseph school system as she made sure that the payroll was properly calculated and the paychecks went out on time. She later worked as the bookkeeper for the Nickerson Animal Health Center. Jane loved to garden, read, sail, was deeply involved in cat rescue, and especially spending time with her beloved family & friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents George von Asch and Olive Schehl, and her husband, Karl.
She is survived by her sons David and Peter (Stacy Enxing) Seng, grandson Eric Seng, stepmother Marilyn Burrows, sisters Jill Kitowski and Susan (Jim) Schmidt, brother Michael (Myong) von Asch, and her sister “by choice,” Beth Wassilak.
