I had the chance to work with Jean when I worked at Falmouth Hospital a few years back. She was the volunteer on Thursday afternoons and she was such a lady. We would try to do a monthly lunch with all the girls from the Faxon. She would always have a smile on her face and we all loved her so much. I am so sorry for your loss and I am honored that I got to know such a great person.
