Not sure what to say?

My condolences to the family of "Ms Noah". I only knew of her by owning an adorable stuffed bunny with long ears that she handmade. I actually ran across her obituary while searching for other Ms Noah plush toys. She sounded like a very sweet lady and was very blessed to have had a so many loved ones. I share in your grief as, I too, lost my mother to dementia in January 2022. Gods blessings to Ms Noah's family.

I met Jean in 1980 when she was in Charleston for health reasons. She introduced me to Ms. Noah and gave me a mouse with a long tail. I still have it! I remember her beautiful smile and giving heart. Little did I know she was friends with my future Mama Cele(adopted work Mama). Please know how deeply sorry I am for your family´s loss. Sending love and prayers. May God Bless.

Prayers to her family. My fiancé and I will cherish and love her home for many years to come. This is a 3rd time for me too, and I am an English teacher as well. Its seems serendipitous that we found this treasure to call home and we were saddened to hear of her passing. She was a treasure to this community. Love, Betsy and Joe

Jean had a generous heart and a great sense of hospitality. Christmas Eve at her house was not to be missed.
