So sorry and surprised to see that Jean has passed away. To me, Jean had a bubbly personality and was easy to work with. Over the years she worked for me in the Greenwood Lindale Laboratory she was very dependable and pleasant to have around.

If I remember correctly growing up in lindale Jean and Clyde use to come over my parents house and play cards. Jean I believe worked at Pepperell Mill many many years ago. I think that is how my parents meet them course time went on and my parents left the mill before it closed. My prayers and thoughts are with your family. Jean was a sweet person and loved to cut up. I know she will be missed.
