HARRIET JANE SLOBOHM
TELLEZ, FUHS 1951
Tellez, Harriet Jane
Harriet, known by most as Jane or Mrs. Tellez went to her
Heavenly home September 6, 2017.
Jane was born September 3, 1933 and lost her battle with breast and bone marrow
cancer 3 days after her 84th birthday.
Jane was born, raised, lived and worked in La Habra for her entire life. She
touched the minds and hearts of students, faculty, administrators and many
friends. Jane retired from teaching after 39 years from Washington Jr. high
school with many honors.
A true La Habra native, Jane was a national and international traveler. Mom
made trips across the United States in the family station wagon. She traveled
to North and South America, Europe and China with husband Don, family and
friends.
Jane was also an avid card player, enjoying Bridge and Canasta. Mom and Dad
would play Gin for hours at the cabin or beach.
Knitting, needlepoint and collecting things she treasured were some of her
favorite hobbies. Mom was a fantastic cook and saved recipes she wanted to try.
Jane loved holiday and birthday gatherings with family and was diligent about
getting all of us together. Jane was a member of East Whittier Women's club,
PEO, was honored by the La Habra Masonic Lodge and was active in Bible study at
LHHPC. Jane believed from a very early age in The Gospel Message of Salvation
in Jesus Christ.
Jane is survived by her husband of 64 years, Donald; children, Brad, Tommy
(Pam),
Megan Tellez Burnes (Ron); grandchildren Amanda, Kurt and Kyle; great grandson
Caiden.
