Jean will be missed by so many people. Her spirit and wonderful nature was known by all. One of my favorite memories of her was up
at the Inaugural Ball for Gov. Bill Owens. She and Casey were dressed to the nines. Casey in a Tux and her in a beautiful gown. I will miss you Jean

I met Jean about 20 years ago while competing in the Colorado Make It With Wool Contest. Since then I became a judge and helped with the contest any way I could. Jean always remembered me as I did her. We always had good talks, and I will miss her a lot. I'm sincerely sorry for her family, and friends. She will be missed!
