So sorry to hear the sad news. I will always fondly remember visiting Jean and her family when my children were growing up. I saw her a couple of times within the past several years since she lived a mile from my son Bruce. May you have the peace of God.

Jean and I were confirmed at Jerusalem Lutheran Church in 1953 and were classmates at Hamilton Junior High School and Eastern High School. At Eastern, I remember Jean as proficient in sports and always a good sport -- friendly, smiling, caring. In recent years we saw one another at classmate luncheons, and despite her health issues, Jean exhibited strength, determination and faith in God. Now she is at peace.
May God comfort you with the love of Jesus! - Bea

My condolences to Mary Lou and to Jean's family. Jean was a beautiful person, had the friendliest, contagious smile and will be sorely missed. She will be looking down on us trying to keep us all in "line".

We are all diminished by her absence in our lives. Yet she could never be absent for long. She remains a beacon of hope to all of us whose lives she has touched with her courage and infinite grace. In loving memory. Pat and Sharon

Even though we know Jean is in a much better place we are so sad to lose her. We will remember her as a very independent, caring, loving, joyful friend who was always there when you needed her. She will be missed by many. Mary Lou, we have no doubt that she lectured you on taking care of yourself and please continue asking for help when you need it. Love
