I am sorry to report a New Jersey lyme support leader and advocate has died.
Obituary CHAPMAN, JANE MAY Of Williamstown, NJ, age 45, went home to be with the Lord on July 11, 2006. Born in Vineland, she lived there until moving to Williamstown in 1994. Jane was a graduate of Vineland High School and a graduate of Commonwealth College of Virginia, where she graduated at the top of her class with a 4.0 GPA. She was a member of the Cross Keys United Methodist Church.
She raised money and ran a support group for Lyme Disease. She was also involved with lobbying for Lyme Disease.
Beloved wife of William A. Chapman, USN retired. Devoted mother of Chelsea May Chapman at home. Loving daughter of Theodore and Dorothy May of Vineland. Dear sister of Theodore May, Jr. of Vineland and Judith Montazaan of Richland, WA.
Relatives and friends are invited to her viewing on Thursday eve. from 7:00 - 9:00 PM and Friday from 9:30 - 10:30 AM at the FARNELLI FUNERAL HOME, 504 N. Main Street, Williamstown. Pastor Brian Greco will conduct a service at 11:00 AM at Cross Keys United Methodist Church, 1644 N. Main Street, Williamstown. Burial will follow in Siloam Cemetery, Vineland
Does anyone know if Jane had Lyme disease herself?

Only 45 years old. I'm so sorry to hear this.
But our wonderful CDC says Lyme is rarely fatal.

We're losing way to many lyme friends at such a YOUNG AGE.
Thank you Mary for leading the lyme support groups and educating others about this horrible, fatal lyme/tick disease!
May God comfort your family/friends as they pick up the pieces of your lives.
Snow, if you have any contact with this family, please go into TREPATROL'S NEWBIE LINKS, and on the last page of his links are the sympathy poems I posted online last year. The last 4-5 poems are about Mothers! thanks..

This is so sad. She was so young. Does anyone know her? Williamstown is in southern NJ.
Is there somewhere we can send a note or a donation to her favorite charity or the support group?
