JEAN DANIEL Obituary

JEAN TRUSTY DANIEL Jean Trusty Daniel died peacefully on February 24 at age 97 at her home in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Jean grew up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, attended Randolph-Macon College and graduated from the University of Missouri where she was President of her sorority, Pi Beta Phi. She was a journalist with columns in several Kansas City papers over the years and she was a lifelong watercolor painter. Ever since she learned, as a toddler, that she could float vertically she loved being around water: pools, lakes, and oceans; she was an avid swimmer. She continued with her water aerobic classes at Quail Run until a few weeks before her death. Jean was preceded in death by her husband, David Trusty, in 1968 and her husband William Daniel in 1999. She is survived by her children: Michael, Jean, Scott, and Ann; their spouses, six grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
