Jane Ann (Karsko) Mullins, age 70, formerly of West Scranton, died Monday at Riverside Rehabilitation & Nursing Center in Taylor, after an illness.
Born in Avoca on September 16, 1948, Jane was the daughter of the late Charles, Sr. and Mabel Karsko. An amazing mother, she worked tirelessly to raise her four sons and support her family while her selflessness and work ethic was passed onto her children. Courageously battling Cancer several times, she passed away peacefully Monday afternoon and she will certainly be missed by her family and friends.
She is survived by her four loving sons, Michael Hughes and wife Francine, Stephen Hughes and wife Amy and David Hughes and wife Kimberly, all of Old Forge, and Ted Hughes of Scranton; her siblings, Michael Karsko and wife Alice of Harding, Donald Karsko and wife Liz of Sinking Springs, Mary Ellen McCullum and husband Bill of Bedminster, N.J., Holly O’Boyle and husband Jim of Suscon, and Peggy Degrott and husband Spencer of Melbourne, Fl., her five grandchildren, Jordan, David, Madison, Christian and Josh Hughes; a great granddaughter, Cheyenne; and many nieces and nephews.
Siblings, Chuck Karsko, Jr. and Mabel Dunston; and a niece, Brenda Stephenson also preceded her in death.
Her family would like to acknowledge and thank both Dr. Darlene Dunay for years of amazing care and to the entire staff of Riverside Center.
Private arrangements are under the care of the Thomas P. Kearney Funeral Home, Inc., 517 North Main Street, Old Forge.
