Sharing a little joy with Jane and Jason 2018-05-06 - Cumberland County, KY - Photo by Mitzi Martin. In a little country church with just their kids and a couple of cherished friends as witnesses, the marriage of Jane Todd and Jason Stailey took place on May 5, 2018 at three o'clock in the afternoon with pouring rain outside, and the full sun of real joy inside. As her song says, As Our Mama Told Us, There'll Be Days Like This. The bride, Jane Todd, is my little sister and the groom Jason is the son of Benny and Gaye Stailey. There will be official wedding photos later, but I just had to share the news making my heart smile for them now, with lots of love and prayers for good long lives together. - Linda Waggener Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
