Dear Debbie, Becky. Kern, Mike and family,
We were extremely saddened to learn of Jean's passing from this life, after her stroke.
We were always waiting for "that phone call" from her, when she would be able to talk to us.
Agnes treasured her friendship. Jean was the first person she met, when Agnes arrived in Fairbanks November 1949.
When we were in different parts of the country, our phone conversations kept us close.
We thoroughly enjoyed the 60+ years of friendship...

Kern and family, I am sorry to hear of your mother's passing. My condolences to each of you. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this time.

we were so sorry to hear of Jeanne s passing . I didn't know her all too well but I remember my sister Marion talking of Jeanne as a free spirit and I of course thought she was beautiful and she was . God bless you all. Aunt Ruth and uncle Joe

Dearest Jeannie, rest in peace now, you have earned it.Thou I have only known you in your golden years, what wonderful years they were...I will always remember your smile, the joy of your spirit...south sea islanders believe that when you are born it is your sunrise, and when you pass it is your sunset, and at those moments when the sun rises and sets, is when we shall remember you.......

I am so fortunate to have known Jean and a lot of the Brand family in the 60s and 70s! She was one of the most happy friendly people I have ever known. I always admired the adventurous side of Dick and Jean!

My condolences to the family and friends. I met Jean a couple times the past year and was taken in by her sweet nature. God Bless.

My darling Aunt Jeannie was a bright light in my life and I am so incredibly sad at her passing. She was always so gentle, kind, encouraging and loving. I am so grateful for my time with her, and I will treasure my memories of her forever. My heart goes out to my cousins as they say goodbye to their Mom. I love you all.

Jeannie was an angel here on earth! She taught us all lessons on living and loving life to it's fullest. She always found the positive in every situation and spread joy everywhere she went. May the long time sun shine upon you, all love surround you and the pure light within you guide your way home...
