Jean M. Jirka

I´m so thankful I got to know Jean as we worked together at the Methodist Perinatal Center. She was a hard worker who was always kind, friendly and caring to both her co-workers and her patients. She was quick to smile and just fun to be around. I admired her positivity in all situations. And I don´t know anyone who loved Disney more than her! Jean you will be remembered with fondness and love.

We lost a great one. A giving blessed soul. A certain type of nurturing love and straightforwardness much lost and unseen in this modern world. Amidst Jean's heralding life full of nursing and teaching, Jean Jirka had accepted me as family long ago since 1995, out of the humility and humbleness of her golden heart, as young as 8 years old in the 4th grade when I first met her son Tyler, my best friend given to me that year of my life and beyond today. Family is when someone can make you...
