After 87 years and a full, rewarding life, Jane Marie Fuda went home to Heaven on Tuesday, December 5, 2023. Jane and her twin sister Jean were born to the Chase family on their farm in Lowville, NY. At the age of 4, they were adopted by Carl and Ruth (Abbott) Magsamen and raised in Shrub Oak and Monticello, NY. After the passing of Ruth, she moved with her father, sister and stepmother, Elinor, to Hudson, NY. After graduating from Hudson HS, Jane attended SUNY New Paltz to study education and was introduced to Charles Fuda by Jean. Jane & Charles wed in 1958, and ended up moving to New York City, and then Kinderhook, where they raised their four children. They lived many happy years in this area. After the passing of her husband, she moved to Apex, NC to live with her daughter Ruth. Jane was very artistic. She loved to paint, play piano, carve birds, restore antiques, and tend to her many gardens. She also spent a lot of time with her husband and children at their camp at the Hook Boat Club, where she would often be found watching birds.
