StoryCorps: Patrick Donohew remembers Jane Bresnick

Lena Richardson, Jane Bresnick and Patrick Donohew

Jane Bresnick was often the life of the party: the sort of person who could talk her way into VIP sections, was usually in the center of dance floor, and could get you to do things like climb the marquis of the Castro Theater on Halloween.  Jane was also a "cancer warrior."  When Jane passed away last March, many lost a good friend. Patrick Donohew, her friend of 18 years, came and spoke with StoryCorps facilitator Lena Richardson to remember and celebrate Jane's life. 
 
This conversation was recorded at the StoryCorps booth at the Contemporary Jewish Museum in downtown San Francisco.  And StoryCorps is now accepting reservations for you to record your own stories.
