Jean could always be found in the kitchen, with her love for cooking and hosting family gatherings. She was a community builder for anything she was involved in. She was a retired Hair Stylist of 30 years, served as the Treasurer of the Lockport Carnival Club for 45 years, coordinated Senior Tours to various Casinos, loved going to the gym and spending time at the camp on Grand Isle. She was a generous supporter of local Charities. She was a kind and compassionate woman who never met a stranger and always had an extra place setting for anyone who dropped in. She will be greatly missed by her family, friends, and everyone who knew and loved her.
