Jane Elizabeth Chauvin-Smith (nee Thall), 74, of Rocky Point, NY passed away in Luxor Rehabilitation and Nursing Home at Sayville on August 12, 2022. Jane was born in Rockville Centre, NY on July 25, 1948, to Marie and Clement Thall. Jane married Ernest Rogers Smith of Lindenhurst, and their union formed a family with 8 children. She was a loving and cherished grandmother to 16 grandchildren. Jane proudly worked as an RN for over 30 years at St. Charles Hospital. It was clear that Jane’s calling in life was to be a caretaker, and she was the best of the best at it. She always gave more than she received and liked it that way. She was smart, strong, resilient, independent, and navigated life with grace. She loved celebrating all holidays to the fullest, especially St. Patrick's Day, Halloween and Christmas Eve. She loved a good book, a round of scrabble, any shopping sale, dipping her toes in the sand and ocean, and of course spending time with her family. She will greatly be missed.
