I send my condolences to the family of Jean Hunsaker. I was saddened and shocked to hear of her passing. I have a special place in my heart for both Jean and Kay, as they were our first friends that Ray and I made after we moved to Kettering. We have remained best friends all of these past 55 years! Jean always had a smile for everyone. She was a comfort for me when Ray passed last September. I thank her for my memories of the good times we have shared through the years. They will always be special and she will be missed.
With deep sympathy,
Helen Madole
