Jean and Don provided more than just generators and lighting for most of Mediacom“s MC22 television shoots - they always had an encouraging word and huge smile at the beginning of the shoot, and were a spark of joy at the end of the night, cheering up everyone on the crew regardless of how hard, cold, wet, hot, or just plain exhausting the night had been. Jean will be missed by everyone who ever worked with her and Don. Our condolences, from everyone at MC22.
