Jean Grudzinski Obituary

Jean Marie Grudzinski passed away at the end of February after a brief illness. She was born in Philadelphia, graduating from Frankford High School in 1981. Her main occupation was a homemaker, stay at home mom, and aunt. Jean loved 70s classic rock bands such as YES, Pink Floyd, and Fleetwood Mac. You could always find her doing crossword or jigsaw puzzles. She enjoyed watching documentaries about Egypt, Bigfoot or ghosts. Lately, she was obsessed with all things Avengers & would enjoy hours of cute pet videos online. She is survived by her daughter Kristina, her grandpup Edie & her cats Moo, Boo & Midnight. She was predeceased by her parents Walter & Bernadette Grudzinski, her older brother James & younger sister Joann. Jean is no doubt in heaven, standing between them, attempting to stop a sibling food fight. Jean was a devout Catholic, always giving more than worrying about receiving. In lieu of flowers or gatherings, please make donations to Fletcher's Keep or Knuckle Bump Farm, both animal sanctuaries that she very much adored. "Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there is a trail of beautiful memories." To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Jean M. Grudzinski, please visit our floral store.

Jean Marie is one of my favorite people. She fought for every minute of life she had and rarely complained, and always willing to help someone else.
She was one of my closest friends and for many years she was my family.
I will always love her.... I know you are at peace now my friend.....
