My condolences to her family she was like My second mother knew me and my family since I was little rest in peace and fly high with the angels

My deepest sympathies to all her family and friends. I've known Jean and her clan since the 80's. Jean used to be my mother-in-law back in the day. She was my second mom, a friend and mentor, and always treated me like a daughter. She taught me some things about life and I also learned a LOT about hot rods, muscle cars and auto repair from her, my ex father-in-law Ed, Tony, Joey and John.
She was one hell of a strong woman and fought many battles, some of which none even knew about, but she always showed up for her family and friends, no matter what she was going through.
I am truly blessed to have been a part of her journey.
May you fly high with the angels
Jean.
RIP "Ma"
