Aunt Jean,

I'll never forget those times my family came to Wagner Ave for visits. I can still remember the little candy store on the corner. Such pleasant memories. To Patty, Linda, Chuckie and Mike, my most sincere condolences on the loss of a most wonderful woman. I'm sorry I couldn't make it back to New Jersey to pay my respects. May Mother Nature keep and watch over all of you. R.I.P. Aunt Jean....sleep well, Mother Nature keeps you now......Your Nephew, Brian Crigger

Grandma- as your 1st and oldest grandchild I will never forget the summers I spent with you putting your hair in curlers at night, eating our apples, and painting your nails that fire red color you loved. I am blessed to have had my children know you and love you as great grandma! You will be truly missed in all our lives.

I will never forget when you and I worked in Perth Amboy General in the late 1970's. I was working there as a Junior Volunteer and had the pleasure of working side by side with you on the 5th floor.It was so awesome to see such a Great Smile from my Aunt Jean and thinking of going into the Nursing Field myself.But that all changed when my Uncle Jack had his 1st heart attack and I had to tend to his needs as a Junior Volunteer. Thank You for your Wisdom,your Kindness and most of all Your Love and all the Passion that came my way during that time. Love Always your Niece
