Jean Chimenti Obituary
Jean received her Bachelor's degree in Education from Edinboro University. She taught art in the Erie School District for more than 30 years. Jean also was an avid artist and art enthusiast. Her favorite medium was painting, but she had a soft spot for drawing. Many of Jean's pieces remain with family and friends to be cherished for years to come.
Jean was a dedicated mother and wife. She was a selfless caregiver who went above and beyond to support her family. She had a charismatic personality that could always make people around her laugh.
In addition to her parents, Jean was preceded in death by her brothers Jim and Kevin Barr and a sister Sue Rowe.
Jean is survived by her husband William Chimenti, daughter Elaine Chimenti of Erie, son John Chimenti, wife Megan of Macedonia, Ohio, along with grandchildren, John, Anthony, and Samantha Chimenti.
Services and inurnment will be private. Brugger Funeral Homes & Crematory, 1595 West 38th, is assisting with arrangements.

My sympathies to Jean's family. When she worked at Jefferson I picked her up for work. She was one of the most positive people and it was fun to be around her. She was a wonderful person who loved her family.

So sorry to hear of Jeans passing. I worked with her at P-B.... she always had a positive attitude and a great sense of humor! She always lightened the mood with her presence . I will never forget her lunch bag made out of duct tape. A good person gone too soon... she always talked about her family... my sincerest sympathy... RIP, Jean

hat a great art teacher she was. I had the honor of working with her and her sense of humor what so huge. Projects the kids made were fabulous and her bulletin boards were definitely filled with humor only grown ups would get.
