She then earned a bachelor's degree in biology at Emmanuel College and a master's degree in education at Salem State.

Jane is survived by her sister Dorothy Stumpf (Bernard) of Westerly, RI, her sister Virginia Johnson (Alexander) of Plymouth, MA, her brother-in-law Walter Bacigalupo and his wife Norma McGowan of Pelham, NH, several cousins, and 13 nieces and nephews. Jane was the identical twin of the late Margaret Copley of Dracut and the sister of the late Mary Bacigalupo of Lowell.
