Ms. Norma Jean Woolley, affectionately known as Jean, was born on December 7, 1929, in Ponca City, Oklahoma, to the late Mr. Homer L. Woolley and Mrs. Winnie Olsten Woolley. From an early age, Jean developed a love for animals, especially birds. She loved gardening and being immersed in the open air of the outdoors. Jean held a vocation for caring and helping people. She was the epitome of the word "daughter" when it came to her parents. The compassion and aid she gave them will forever be unmatched.
