Dear Laudenslager family,

I am so sorry to hear of Jean's passing.
My memories of Jean go back to my childhood when I would sleep over with my cousin's, Donna and Karla. She was such a kind lady to me. She always made me feel welcome. God Bless the family.

We are so very sorry to hear about the passing of dear Jean!
We happened to be in Colorado, when we found out and that's why we could not attend her viewing.

Ernest, you and all your family members, are in our thoughts and prayers

Love, Gisela & John Henninger and Family! ❤❤
