My mom and I were just talking about Jean, and her time at Staintons in the fabric department. We were remembering her incredible creativity and whacky sense of humor. We were laughing because we both remembered that she hated to wear shoes and was always barefoot!
It's people like Jean that make life so special, adding color and joy to our journey.
We felt lucky that we knew her. Our best to her family.
