Jane Huebel

Jane Elizabeth Neal Huebel was born on October 30, 1948 in Dallas, Texas to Robert W. & Hazel Mae Neal and was called home on Sunday October 18, 2015. Jane was preceded in death by her best friend and husband, Kenneth Roy Huebel; father Robert Neal; sister Patricia Lueke. Jane is survived by daughters Michelle Parker & husband Timothy, Hollie Gilbert & husband Rowdy; mother Hazel Tuley & husband Roland; 10 grandchildren; 3 great grandchildren. Jane first met Kenneth while on a double date in 1965. Kenneth was with another girl and Jane was with Kenneth's friend. Kenneth couldn't take his eyes off of Jane that night. He would later say he knew he had met the one and only love of his life. Later that evening he broke of his relationship with the other girl and three weeks later he asked Jane out on their first date. The rest, as they say, was history. Shortly after Jane's graduation from Lancaster High School she and Kenneth were married. The couple did everything together, including grocery shopping, for the next 38 years until Kenneth's death Jane and Kenneth started a family in 1968 with the birth of their first daughter Michelle, and two years later in 1970 the family grew by one more with the addition of Hollie. In 1970 the family moved to Lancaster and Kenneth was employed in retail management and Jane was a stay at home mom. During the early to mid 1980's Kenneth became the manager of the Mott's store located on N. Dallas Ave. in Lancaster. Jane opened a professional custom framing service located within the Mott's store. Most married couples could not have survived working together daily, but Jane & Kenneth loved every minute together. During these same years both of Jane's daughters and her mother also worked at the Mott's. Many of the Huebel girls had friends that also worked at the Mott's with them. Jane Huebel was like a second mother to many of these young people. Offering love and acceptance as well as motherly advice. The love that she and Kenneth shared drew others to them. In 1992 Jane left the retail business and went to work as a receptionist for a local physician's office. Her personal attention to the needs of the patients coupled with her natural outgoing personality brought her consistent praise from her employer as well as many of the physicians and professional staff members of Charlton Methodist Hospital. Jane will be greatly missed by all who knew her. She had a heart filled with unconditional love for her children and grandchildren and a willingness to always be first to help others. Dementia may have impaired her ability to fully remember some things, dulled her tongues ability to speak clearly, but it could not remove the twinkle from her eyes nor the smile from her face. The family rejoices in knowing that she is in the presence of Christ Jesus and sharing the joys of heavens eternal glory with the love of her life, Kenneth. Mother, we only ask that you look for us just inside the Eastern gate for we will be there too one day!
