A valued employee of Texas A&M University, Jane served as development specialist and fund raiser at the Memorial Student Union for 28 years. Her duties included arranging and accompanying honor students and faculty on domestic and foreign trips, as well as planning seminars at the Memorial Student Union. During last year's renovation of the Union building, former students, friends and faculty made contributions toward renovation and renaming of the board conference room, now known as The Jane Bailey Board Conference Room, in her honor. Jane was beloved by her student workers, alumnae, and faculty and had the reputation of high efficiency and good humor in her approach to work and problem solving. The A&M Memorial Student Center Director, Will Brooks, said at the September, 2013, retirement dinner honoring Jane that she was known as 'The first lady of the A&M Memorial Student Center.'
Survivors include her beloved brother, John Eades Coleman, Jr., cousins: Aden Coleman Pryor, Harriett Lenoir (The Rev. Mr. Scott Lenoir) and Albert Richard Coleman (Margaret Pillow).
Graveside services will be at Odd Fellows Cemetery in Greenwood, MS.
