Jane Ann Mullins

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Jane Ann Mullins, who left this world on July 13, 2026, at the age of 76. Jane departed peacefully at her home in the comforting embrace of her family, following a courageous battle with ALS. Born on February 16, 1950, in Pikeville, Kentucky, Jane was the cherished daughter of the late Helen and Herschel Mullins. Her life was a tapestry woven with love, strength, and unwavering faith. She was predeceased by her beloved parents and her dear sister Frances. Jane never had children of her own, but she is survived by her two loving nephews. Jane shared an incredibly special bond with her nephew, Donald Phillips, whom she loved as a son. Together, they shared a love for music and family, they celebrated life’s milestones, and created countless cherished memories. After the passing of her dear sister Frances, Jane lovingly stepped into the role of mother for her young nephew, Joshua Hall. She devoted herself to raising Joshua as her own, surrounding him with unwavering love, guidance, and care throughout his life. Both Donnie and Josh, held an irreplaceable place in Jane’s heart and were among her greatest blessings. Jane gained her title as "Nanny" to Donnie and Trina's two children whom she treasured dearly. That love continued to grow as she became Nanny to seven great great- nieces and nephews, each of whom held a special place in her heart. Later, Jane joyfully embraced the roll as "Nana" after Josh welcomed his first daughter into the world. Jane gave her blessing as Joshua and Amanda were united in marriage. Her family continued to grow with the arrival of two more children. Her role of Nana to all three children was one she cherished. An active member of the Woodhaven Baptist Church, Jane’s faith was the cornerstone of her life. She found great joy in serving the Lord and faithfully participating in the life of her church. Jane possessed a fervent love for reading and an adventurous spirit that took her on many journeys, both near and far, often accompanied by family and friends who shared in her zest for life. Jane’s heart was as expansive as her spirit. She had a remarkable gift for making everyone feel welcome, loved, and valued. Her kindness, generosity, and gentle compassion touched countless lives and will remain her enduring legacy. The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to Jane’s friends and church family for their unwavering support, love, and prayers during her battle with ALS. Your compassion brought her comfort, strength, and peace during her most difficult days, and for that, we are eternally grateful. Jane Ann Mullins was deeply loved and will be profoundly missed. Though she is no longer with us in body, her love, faith, and beautiful spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. Her life was a blessing, her memory a treasure, and her legacy one of unwavering love. May she rest in the eternal peace of God’s loving embrace.
