Jane R. Solly (Riland) of Warminster died suddenly on Wednesday, April 8, 2015, at Abington Memorial Hospital.

Born in Philadelphia, Jane was the beloved wife of 45 years to William R. “Bill” Solly, and daughter of Shirley A. Riland (Williams) and the late Jordan A. Riland.

Jane was a previous resident of Churchville and a graduate of Council Rock High School, Class of 1968. In March of 1970, Jane married the love of her life and for over 20 years they lived in Ivyland Borough before moving to Warminster in 1991.

Over the years, Jane worked in many occupations. She began her career as a secretary and then worked at the family’s farm in Solly Brother’s Farm Market. In 1990, she bought a children’s consignment shop with her friend Kathy Rook, which they operated until 1997. In later years, things came full circle and she worked as a secretary in the Centennial School District until her retirement 2014.

Jane always found time to give back to her community. She volunteered her time for the Ivyland Fire Company Ladies’ Auxillary, serving as its President and Secretary. She later served with the Company itself as its Secretary and Trustee. For all of her hard work and dedication she was made a Life Member of the Ivyland Fire Company. Even in her death she kept giving, donating to The Gift of Life Foundation.

Jane enjoyed planting flowers, counted cross-stitch sewing and traveling with her husband to St. Johns, USVI. Most of all she enjoyed caring for her many cats. When asked why she adopted older cats, her reply was, “Because I like to take the ones that need me the most.”

In addition to her beloved husband, Jane is survived by her dear children and their spouses William Randall Solly (Kelli); Kevin Eric Solly (Lynne); her sister Laura Peters (David); and her brother David J. Riland (Brenda). Jane is the proud grandmother of William Richard, Brian Patrick, Bryce Eagan, Kennedy Marie and Austin Ryan.
