Jane Muller, née Gillen, passed away peacefully at home in New York City on December 23rd, 2022. Born on October 14, 1948 and raised in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, Jane attended the State University of New York College at Cortland, where she studied dance and physical education. Inspired to share her love of dance and movement with others, she pursued a master’s degree at Teachers College, Columbia University and went on to teach at Mamaroneck High School.
Jane was a deeply devoted mother and grandmother and loved nothing more than spending time with her family. Holidays and family visits were always grand celebrations, marked by meticulously crafted multi-course meals and artful table settings. Jane’s passion for cooking was one of her favorite ways to care for others and it was an endeavor she pursued with enormous dedication. She traveled to study with some of the world’s most renowned chefs and regularly took classes at the Institute for Culinary Education in New York City.
The enthusiasm with which Jane navigated the world never diminished throughout her life. At once extremely elegant and hilariously irreverent, Jane welcomed opportunities to try new experiences and could find humor in any situation.
Jane was preceded in death by her parents, Leo Gillen and Angela McCauley Gillen, and her husband, Edward M. Muller. She is survived by brothers Peter and William Gillen, daughters Gwyneth Muller and Lara Estep, and grandson Harrison Estep–all of whom will miss her dearly.
A visitation will be held from 4-6pm on Tuesday, January 3rd 2023 at the John Krtil Funeral Home in New York City. All are welcome to attend. The interment will be private.

Jacqueline (Niego) Turner of Manhattan, New York, passed away peacefully on January 27, 2026, at the age of 88. Born on March 4, 1937, in the Bronx, she was the beloved daughter of Olga and Joseph Niego. A proud New Yorker through and through, Jacqueline built a life defined by devotion—to her family, her faith, and her work. After graduating from Cathedral High School in New York City, she spent over three decades serving the United States Government with dedication and professionalism before continuing her career in the private sector with more than two decades at Bristol Myers Squibb. Her strong work ethic and commitment to excellence earned her the respect of colleagues across the years. In 1994, Jacqueline married Nicholas Turner, with whom she shared a deep faith and a love of dancing until his passing. Together, they made their home in Manhattan, where Jacqueline lived for the remainder of her life. Jacqueline was a lifelong and active member of the Catholic Church, serving faithfully as a lector for many decades. Her voice, presence, and reverence were well known and cherished within her parish community. Outside of work and church, Jacqueline was an avid New York Yankees fan, and she found great joy in ballroom dancing— a passion that brought her friendship and movement. Jacqueline is survived by her loving sister, Maureen Selskis, and by her many nieces and nephews: Joseph Niego, Michael Niego, James Niego, Kathleen Lawson, Patrick Callahan, Jeanne Confehr, Jacqueline Selskis, Mary Carney, and Albert Selskis. She was a devoted and cherished aunt, great-aunt, and great-great-aunt, and she leaves behind many great-nieces and great-nephews and great-great-nieces and great-great-nephews who will forever hold her memory close. She is preceded in death by her siblings Joseph Niego, Nora Niego and Victoria Callahan, whom she loved dearly. Jacqueline will be remembered as a devoted wife, daughter, sister, aunt, great-aunt, and great-great-aunt; a woman of faith; a loyal friend; and a true New Yorker who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
