Jayne married her sole mate, Dr. Harold Warren Tripp on August 30, 1968. The couple made their permanent home in Reidsville, Georgia. Jayne was a thirteen year member of the Reidsville Altamaha Hobby Show Steering Committee, and was instrumental in establishing it as a premier event in the Reidsville area. She was also active in various community projects and several blood drives during the past twenty-seven years in Reidsville.

She was known to her family as a wonderful, loving and caring wife, mother, grandmother, sister and aunt. She loved her family tremendously and was actively involved in their lives, assisting them in any manner she could. She especially loved spending time with her three grandchildren, Colyn, Jessalyn and Fallyn. Jayne was an excellent seamstress and was forever using her creative talents in the many crafts she made. She spent countless hours of her life caring for her husband, children, grandchildren, brothers, sisters, and her late mother. Her love for them never failed and was always evident in her desire to assist them in their daily lives. She loved to travel with her husband throughout the United States in their motor home. They enjoyed many cruises and traveled overseas to Europe. Another favorite pastime of Jayneís was to visit cemeteries during her travels and to research old monuments in an effort to understand the lives of those people from their epitaphs.
