Her mission service began as a young woman as she was sent by special appointment from the United Presbyterian Church to the American Mission Hospital in Tanta, Egypt, in 1955 just after graduating from Westminster College. After four years of service there, she returned and briefly served the Wallace Memorial Church, but her heart was in Egypt. She was sent for another three-year term to serve at the Schutz American School in Alexandria, Egypt. After a short stint working for Passavant Hospital, Jean went to work at the YWCA of Greater Pittsburgh. For 30 years she served in various capacities: as program director for teens in the South Hills, as center director in Wilkinsburg, and as program manager in the North Center. Jean's work centered on leadership for women and girls, advocating for their needs. She resigned from this work to initiate the North Hills Affordable Housing in 1995 and worked as secretary for Benedictine Place, housing for single mothers and children. Additionally, Jean has served on the following Boards: North Hills Community Outreach, North Hills Youth Ministry (renamed ANCHORPOINT), North Hills Affordable Housing, and Benedictine Place (renamed HEARTH), Action-Housing Inc., Sister's Place Inc., Bach Choir of Pittsburgh, Asian Women's Institute, Pittsburgh Cluster, Zonta International, New Wilmington Mission Conference, and the Seminary World Mission Initiative. She held many positions at Northmont United Presbyterian Church, including serving a term as Clerk of Session, and worked on Peacemaking and Mission Committees. She was also a Stephen Minister and served actively with Presbyterian Women both at Northmont Church and Pittsburgh Presbytery. Jean's dedication to serving others has been a hallmark of her life. She is beloved by all who knew her. In lieu of flowers contributions may be made to Northmont United Presbyterian Church.
