Even though you might be scared and Tears might be Shed
But the Love wont be Forgotten of those who have left us behind and are dead.
Memories can Last a Lifetime come.
The stories that were told and the one you tell wont cease to be done.
For you will never Be to far Apart.
Aunt Jean is in us somewhere deep down in our heart!!!
-Love you aunt Jean and let your soul be filled with love of others and be reunited with lost ones.

Jeane,Aunt Jeane:
You have been the true Martriarch of the Willett/Bair Family for the past 20+ years.
You were so many things to so many people, to me my rock,you would talk me down when frustrated with kids, relationships, just day to day life just as if my mother (your sister), you would do it with such honesty,candor and so much humor.
I am so thankful to have had the opportunity for my kids and I to spend last Thanksgiving with you and to hear stories and enjoy the amazing relationship between you and Mo.
The two of you at times are like a slapstick team...(I realize later that was much the same that I remember between you and my mom, Marion)You would have the kids and I in tears laughing so hard. The memories from that Thanksgiving will last us a life time.
I hope my children and I will take care of each other as you and Mo did without a beat. I was just in awe of the both of you, jealous ab bit that I never got to have that that with my mom.
You were there to help my mom and the rest of us when my dad past away and stayed to be there for my graduation so that it wouldn't be so hard on me or my mom. You were there when my mom got sick to help myself and the rest of the family get through it and make sure that your sister had all the support she needed in that time.
Whenver I would call to cheer you up you always were the one cheering me up. You were and extraordinary women and mother, sister and aunt.
I recently heard a saying not sure whose it was but i think it was about you. "Once you become a mother, you are no longer the picture but you become the frame."
There are so many people that is in your picture that you have framed. The many who attended Thursday is tribute to that (unfortunately if it hadnt been for cancellation and delay of flights, I would of been one of them and would of said all of this to your tribute.)
We will miss you and think of you often. You are now with many who I love and you as well, so you are at peace and back home.
Tonight, we have Crab Ragoon in your honor :)
Love,
Barb Willett
