Jean represented the epitome of gentility. She was a lady, a friend to many and will truly be missed. I knew her briefly, but she had a way of making you feel as though she'd known you forever. To Julian, I extend my heartfelt sympathy. I met both you and your mother in Munster while working for Edward Jones. I still work for the same company, but in St. John. You are in my prayers.

Jean was a wonderful lady who cared much for our animals. When able, she would come to our shelter and walk our dogs. She loved it...and we loved her! In fact she adopted one of our dogs. She always had a kind word and a wonderful smile on her face. She was one of a kind and we will miss her.

I believe that there are angels among us, God sent Jean to so many people, she could lift your spirit when she entered a room, and now he has called her home, so that she can prepare a place for all those she left behind...My thoughts and prayers go out to the Benavides family.

Jean was a lady with a lifetime of accomplishments and many stories of her childhood in England during the war. She loved being a daughter, mother and loved her life with her devoted Marco. We should all be so blessed to still be looking at each other the way they did after their many years of marriage.
But what I will remember most about Jean is how she made me feel. How she made everyone feel. Important, special and loved.
Thank you for your blessings Jean. Thank you for your quiet ways, gentle smiles and the sweetness in your eyes. I am a better person for having known you. Marco, we are praying for you.
Love Bill and Valerie

My sympathies to all. I only knew Jean for a short while but I thought she was the most wonderful and gracious woman I had ever met. Her spirit inspired me...she will be sadly missed.
