Jean was a loving, caring mother and grandmother who treated her daughters-in-law like her own; always proud to tell you the latest thing one of her "kids" had done.

She had accepted Jesus Christ as her Savior and Lord as a young girl and was tireless in serving Him at Ridgetop Baptist Church until moving to Mason.

Jean will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved her, but we can rejoice in knowing that now she sits at Jesus' feet, worshipping Him and waiting for us.
