Jane Kareth, age 69, of Boonton Township, New Jersey, passed away peacefully at her home on Saturday, January 17, 2026, from frontotemporal dementia. 

She was born in Babylon, New York, daughter of Ethel and Michael Autorino.  She married Paul Kareth on September 16, 1989, and was married for over 36 years. 

Jane is survived by her husband, Paul; her son, Connor; her sisters, Robin and Debbie; and her brother, Michael. 

Jane was so kind. She went out of her way to move turtles out of the road even if it put her at risk. She rescued anything she could. Jane educated the community about the environment and was ahead of her time on environmentalism. She was the most fun mother a kid could ask for.
