Jean and Aubrey were very close friends of my parents, Kaye and Duane Waggoner. I was a classmate of David also. Jean would come over to my parent's home while I was visiting from Dallas and it was always great to see her! She and my mom had a standing get together every Sunday night where they would eat dinner and then watch a movie. David came many times too and always got the TV ready for the two ladies! I will always remember her, and the fact that she and my mom were friends at the University of Wisconsin and both got their degree in Occupational Therapy, shows what a life long friendship they had. To go even further, they both moved from Wisconsin to Beaumont, Texas and actually lived around the corner from each other. We will all miss Jean as we do Aubrey. What a sweet woman whom I will never forget! I am privileged to call her my friend.
