Jean was a close friend of my mom. Though mom died in 1971, Jean and I still kept in touch over the years. I loved getting her Christmas letter each year. She had a wonderful sense of humor and a great memory. I will miss her more than words can say. My heart goes out to Charles and the family. God Bless.
