Loretta Jane Halsey

Mrs. Loretta "Jane" Halsey, age 61, of Shelbyville passed away Sunday, November 8th, 2015 at Spectrum Health Butterworth Campus, in Grand Rapids, MI.

Jane was born in Lansing, MI on April 12, 1954, the daughter of the Beulah (Pearl) and Edmond Hyatt. She was raised in the Nashville area and attended local schools graduating from Maple Valley High School in 1972.

She was the wife of Mr. Stephen Halsey. The couple met at the Charlotte Eagles, and developed a relationship, that over the years grew into a beautiful marriage. In 1987 while working together in Bristol Tennessee, the couple was married and has celebrated 28 years of marriage. Stephen and Jane loved to travel, and for several years owned and operated an antique photo booth business which took them to antique shows all over the upper Midwest. For the past 15 years Jane has been employed as a Quality Coordinator at Corium International and was looking forward to her retirement in April 2016.

Jane loved her family and was a wonderful cook. A get together with family and friends was something she cherished and always included a great meal. Along with her husband, the couple enjoyed spending their summers attending Bluegrass Festivals, all over the state of Michigan; and, the local festival in "little Nashville" at her parents farm in Assyria Township was always a favorite destination. Along with her daughters and sisters, Jane developed a wonderful annual tradition of beating the winter blues during the month of February, with a girls weekend at the casino!
