She added, "[H]owever deeply a parent feels the loss of a child, the suffering of a young child at the loss of a parent must be much greater. So, I would ask the sympathetic to say a prayer for my precious eight-year-old granddaughter Bella, who previously lost her father and is now also left without her mother."

Jane has now reportedly assumed the role of primary caretaker of her granddaughter, Bella.

Rest in peace, Bobbi Jean Carter.
