9/8/13 I didn't make it to the funeral home as I had planned. Jean was a very special person and was always willing to go the extra mile. She spoke frequently of her grandchildren. They were all very important to her. She loved working the flu clinics at LCHD. She knew so many people who came each year. Jean will be truly missed. Nancy Hanger
