Growing up in Murray, Jean and her family were our neighbors. Julie and I were friends and I was at their house frequently. I remember when Don died and Jean was crying in the living room. When Jean made cookies Julie and I were at the counter watching and listening to her tell a story about what was happening as she stirred and added the ingredients. When Jean married Doug they moved to Midvale and I would visit them there as I did when they moved to South Jordan. A couple of years ago I ran into Julie and she invited me to visit Jean at the community center where she lived. It was a dessert day and a band was playing. We had a delightful visit and the photos posted are from that day. As the band played Jean got up and went across the room and got a gentleman to dance with her. She was having a good time and it was a joy to watch her still having fun in her nineties. My love and sympathies to Jean's family, especially Julie, on her passing. Jean was a wonderful person and I am thankful she influenced my life for the better.
