I am so sorry. Aunt Jean was quite a lady. I would see her when she visited Aunt Leta. Aways enjoyed talking to her. Thinking of you all. Remembering all the times you came to Colby and the fun we had. Wish I could make it to the funeral but we are in AZ for the winter and can't really leave Don. My love to you all.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Fond memories of visiting Aunt Jean when I was younger. I remember her giving me a Curious George book once and I was over the moon. Also that she loved plants & flowers. It seems like I remember a room or the deck in her old house with plants & flowers everywhere. She was my cool Aunt who was older but seemed so much younger to me for some reason. I pray for peace & comfort for you in knowing she is reunited with her sisters & brothers in heaven.
