"I think for the entire its like losing a grandmother, but for us in the financial industry its like losing a pioneer in terms of the financial market and what she was able to do within the credit union sector. My most memorable experience with Miss Jane is when we were working with the St, Catherine's education bond and we were having some challenges in terms of having individuals really understand how this would work. This was in 2015 I believe and we went over and had a meeting with Miss Jane and her board and she was like, 'oh come on, this school has been there for ages, its older and me and we are going to definitely support this school and invest.' HRCU made a significant investment, I think it was a win win for both the school and for Miss Jane, but her willingness for pioneering into new areas even at her wisdom age, extremely good. I hope that for our generation that in our passing we could leave the same legacy like in capital markets as she has done in the credit union."

Jane Usher dead at 101. Her official funeral is set for Tuesday December 18th.
