Jane was born on January 13, 1952, in Dubuque, IA, daughter of Otto and Mary (Hannan) Theisen. She married Richard Dunkel on November 7, 1970, at St. Patrick Catholic Church in Epworth, Iowa.

Jane devoted her life to caring for her family, friends, and loved ones. She had a generous heart and was always giving – whether through her time, her love, or her unwavering support. She loved spending time with her family, especially the grandkids. She cherished the holidays, spoiling the grandkids, and cooking for all. Jane looked forward to her Bingo games, wherever they were held.
