Not sure what to say?

I was in sales class at Lincoln High assigned to work at downtown Montgomery Ward half day. My first real job. (1972-1974) I was placed in bedding dept. for training. Jean was absolutely the best mentor! She took me under her wing & treatrd me as her daughter. She always was positive, always had a smile, loved to laugh, had a zest for life, devotion for God. But most of all the unconventional love for Fred & the accomplishments of her daughters. RIP Jean.

So sorry to hear this, Tia. Thoughts & prayers for you & your family.

My thoughts go out to Tia and the family on this sad occasion.

Very sorry for the loss of your Mother/Grandmother. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

She was my aunt. I remember how she loved her daughters and was always so proud of them!
I will miss you, Aunt Jean!
