I wish I could have seen my Aunt one last time. I grew up with her in my teenage years of life, and she has made me strong willed with all of the wisdom she has shared. I love her and I will forever miss her.

Jean was a wonderful, strong woman whom I learned a lot from and am proud to have had the honor to have been friends with. She was a true inspiration to me and my family.
