Jane worked to help youth with their issues at various facilities including Sunburst Youth Homes in Neillsville, Clark County Department of Social Services, Northern Pines in Cumberland and Lutheran Social Services. Prior to her illness, Jane very much enjoyed working with her co-workers and clients at Childrens Services Society in Marshfield as a therapist. Jane was a fun person and had many friends. She considered herself to be the funniest person she knew. Jane was dedicated to her daughter Dahlia, the light of her life. She loved her entire family and had a very strong faith in God and the Virgin Mary. Jane loved to have fun including having "whoo-haas" for her nieces and nephews. She loved all kinds of music and the Green Bay Packers. She also followed the New York Yankees much to the dismay of her family who are Brewer and Twins fans. Jane married Doug Krokstrom in Marshfield of this year. She fought her cancer with courage, surrounded by a large family and awesome friends and co-workers. She will be sadly missed by all, but we know she is smiling down on us with the rest of the angels. She is survived by her husband Doug, children Adam Krokstrom of Plattville, Ryan, Jennifer, Alex and Dana Krokstrom all of Marshfield and Dahlia Balow-Krokstrom of Marshfield. She is further survived by her parents, William and Alice Gadke of Rice Lake, siblings, Guy (Kelly) Balow of Detroit Lake, MN, Thomas (Jennifer) Balow of New Richmond, Ben Balow of Rockford, MN, Joe (Sharon) Balow of Amery, Donna (Pete) Lecander of Star Prairie, Marie (Doug) Nett of Rice Lake, Valerie Curry of Rice Lake and Rosanne (Paul) Snowwhite of Dexter, MI.
