It is with a heavy heart we announce the passing of our mom, W. Jean Pfeiffer on November 20, 2025 of natural causes quietly at her home. Jean was 86 years old and born in Kenton, Ohio on February 4, 1939. Jean lived in Lake Placid, Florida and was a cherished and respected member of the American Legion Post 25 in Lake Placid. She was the entertainment director and loved a good band! She was especially fond of the Commander of the American Legion, Fred Pierce and all her American Legion family. She supported and yelled loudly as an avid fan of The Ohio State University Buckeyes.

Jean is survived by her four children; Greg Jump, Sarita (Fred) Featherly, Steve (Robyn) Jump, and Don (Michelle) Jump. Her grand children; Ashley (Shannon) Whaley, Kelsey (Jacob) Weyhing, Nikolai Jump, Ryan (Maxine) Jump, Courtney (Nathan) Weyhing, Isaak Jump, Marcus (Marta) Featherly, Sara (Nick) Barnes, Malorie Featherly, and seven great grandchildren. Also survived by two brothers; Bill (Julie) Pfeiffer and Larry Pfeiffer.

Jean will join her family at the Grove Cemetery in Kenton, Ohio. A graveside ceremony as yet to be determined. Thank you all for your prayers and words of kindness regarding our mom.
