To the family of Jean, My very heartfelt sympathy to you all. What fun Willie and I had over all these years. Tractor pulls, all kids of toy tractor, Jeans doll collection and all those Corvets Just being together and doing fun things. Larry and Jean were such a great couple to share things with. there was never a dull moment with Jean. She kept things lively every moment. Always laughing and making everyone around her laugh. Jean will be missed and we all lost a lovely cousin. May God hold her in his arms. Love you Jean.

My heartfelt sympathies to Rob, Kim & Family in the loss of your mother.
I was honored to call Jean my friend for many years. She truly enjoyed singing in the St. Louis Choir, attending the Women´s Arise Group for years, sharing stories of her travel adventures, shopping & oh she loved her baked fish @ Billy´s & the Margarettia´s.
With Jean you always had honesty, a true woman of Faith & you had to be up for a spur of the moment adventure.
I know she is happy in Heaven reunited with Larry #1.
