She graduated from Duchesne Academy of the Sacred Heart in 1953 and Maryville College of the Sacred Heart in St. Louis, MO in 1957.
A month later, she married her husband James Leo Flood, MD and they enjoyed 58 happy years of marriage until his death in 2016. They had seven children in seven years, and raised them in Denison, IA, where Jim was a surgeon and Jane was a stay-at-home mother.
She took to heart Saint Madeleine Sophie Barat's commitment to education; as a result, her children pursued professional degrees in medicine, law, and education.
Her loves included her husband and children, traveling, and reading. She had a keen interest in history and loved entertaining. She cherished the opportunity to meet new people and hear their stories, and she loved to laugh.
Jane and Jim moved full-time to Lake Okoboji after Jim retired, and they enjoyed their life there with kids and grandchildren visiting them. They returned 'home' to Omaha in 2014 as Jim's health declined, and she renewed friendships and made new and lasting friends at the Arboretum and St. Margaret Mary's parish, where she and Jim had married 57 years before.
Preceded by:

Survived by:
