Doris Jane Reynolds Landreth, 70, of 141 Heron Court, Fair Play, SC 29643 passed away on Saturday, January 1, 2022.
Born in Greenville County, SC to the late Bobbie Jean Skelton Reynolds McWhite and Jesse Cleveland Reynolds, Jr., Jane was a standout basketball player at Slater-Marietta High School, a member of Phi Theta Kappa at North Greenville Junior Baptist College, and a graduate of Clemson University. She also earned a master's degree in education from Berry College.
Jane started her teaching career at Hollis Elementary in Greenville, SC, subsequently teaching subjects ranging from algebra to physical education at schools in Toccoa, LaGrange, and Rome, GA, and then in Marion and Kernersville, NC. She was not only an active member of her churches in these communities, but also taught Sunday School and was an enthusiastic leader of Mission Friends, Girls in Action, and Vacation Bible School.

She loved doing genealogy research and had an avid interest in local and national politics. As a member of Beaverdam Baptist Church, Jane taught her beloved Sunday School class, the Faithful Seekers, for many years, and she served as the Financial Recording Secretary and on several other committees.
Surviving are her husband of 47 years, Lee Landreth; three daughters, Lisa Reyn Mann (John) of Alexandria, VA; Leigh Ann Landreth (Sherwin) of Waipahu, Hawaii; and Kelly Jo Landreth of Charlotte, NC; her brother and sister-in-law Randy and Kelly Reynolds of Fountain Inn, SC; nephews Andrew (Jessi), Matthew (Elizabeth), and Zachary; her sister-in-law Sherry Wynn (Gil) of Easley, SC; and nieces Natasha, Erica, and Breyanna; her grandchildren Sherlyn, Steffen, Skyller, and Emily; and many other beloved family members.
