Julie and family – I worked with Jean at Memorial E.R. several years ago and remember her with fondness. She was a very kind individual,always willing to lend a helping hand, or chat a little. I know she will be missed by many people. I was grateful to know her.

To Julie and Family: It was so nice to see Aunt Jean at the last family reunion. We never got to see each other much after I moved away from home but when we were in the same places together it was always fun and had good talks. I will miss her a lot. I love you Aunt Jean.

To Julie and family: I’m sorry our families did not get a chance to see each other over the past few years. One of the last memories I have of Aunt Jean is when we went to Uncle Al’s funeral and spent the night in the same hotel room. My daughter Katie was with us and we had a wonderful time getting reacquainted. We will all miss her very much. All our love and prayers to you and your family.
