Not sure what to say?

Jean was a wonderful friend. She will be greatly missed. My deepest sympathy to her
family.

Jean's talent and personality was an asset to the Indianapolis theatre scene. She will be missed. My thoughts are with her family and her Steel Magonlias.

I remember Jean as helpful to other theatres in Indianapolis, specifically Footlite Musicals. A generous heart.

In memory of Jean....She was such an important part of our family at the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre. She will be missed so much. As I said in another post, heaven now has someone who will make the most beautiful angel wings ever. Rest in peace dear Jean.

The link for Flowers does not work right now - we are not having a traditional funeral, Jean wanted a celebration of her life - in a garden full of flowers and life.

This will happen on June 8th at noon, at:
Jim & Cherille VanWinkle's House
25420 Lunda Rd.
West Mansfield, OH 43358

If you are going to send flowers - I'd recommend sending them there on June 7th.

Thanks!
John Engtrom

Dear Engstrom Family,
I remember Jeanie and Bobby from our childhood living on the same street, West Kenworth Road. She was a friend from my past and after reading about her life I am glad to know that it was a happy one.
