Obituary of Jeffrey Lee Lane
Jeffrey Lane was born in Klamath Falls, Ore., on January 30, 1936. At an early age, he moved to Portland, Ore., where he enjoyed a loving and adventurous childhood. He joined the Army Air Force out of high school and served as a radio operator during the Korean Occupation. At this time a visit to Japan awakened a creativity that influenced him throughout his life.
Returning to Portland, he attended the Museum Art School. His curiosity and love of life brought him a wealth of friendships. Self-described, he lived according to the rules of "Lanism". His eye for beauty and composition led to a career of painting and interior design. He appreciated everyone for who they were and will always be remembered as a perfect gentleman.
He was preceded in death by his brother Sanford and is survived by cousins, Elizabeth Adams and Jon Colburn.
We can truly say that "Jeffrey's presence was our reward".
A military ceremony in honor of Jeffrey's service will be held at Willamette National Cemetery on Thursday, January 30th at 11:30. A celebration of Jeffrey's life will follow at 1:00, at the home of Donald Granger and Marlys Mick.
