Jayne Ninneman Bumby, 68, of Marana, Arizona passed away on February 20, 2015 at home with her husband and children at her side after a 5-month journey with cancer.
Jayne was born November 18th, 1946 in Ripon, Wisconsin, the daughter of William and Lucille Ninneman. She was a graduate of Ripon High School, class of 1965 and attended University of Wisconsin - Whitewater for one year of study. She was a member of The Church of Our Lady of the Desert, the Redemptorist Renewal Center in Tucson, Arizona.
She married her high school sweetheart, Edward W. Bumby on September 3rd, 1966. Jaynes five children and four grandchildren were her main focus in her life, first and foremost. She had a love and talent for interior design and was always decorating and redecorating her homes; fresh flowers were her favorite accessories.
She also spent many years working out in the gym, dedicated to her fitness and rarely, if ever, missed a day. She loved the outdoors and she and her husband, Ed spent almost every weekend hiking in the mountains surrounding Tucson. To say that Jayne was an active person would be an understatement.
She is preceded in death by her parents William and Lucille Ninneman of Ripon, WI. Her father passed away when Jayne was three, and her mother when she was thirteen. Her brother William Ninneman of Ripon, WI and guardian parents, Marge and Karl Luetke of Ripon, WI, also preceded her in death.
