  3. So sad to hear of the loss of Aunt Jean. I have always admired her indomitable spirit and will to live life fully with enriching experiences. She was just as tough as nails and so very bright until the very end. I know my mom will miss her daily chats with Aunt Jean. A life very well lived.

  5. Jean was a wonderful neighbor and friend. Her strength and independence was admired and respected. She was an intelligent and smart lady who could carry her own in any circumstance. I loved seeing her walk down the parkway (even with her walker)-everyone knew and watched out for Jean on her walkabouts. She was history and book smart and I had wonderful conversations with Jean. I am so sorry for her family she will truly be missed.
    Jean was a special LADY!
    Now Jean and Jim can have their happy hour drinks together again.
