I love and will miss her. Although, i wasn't able to spend alot of time with her the time we shared i cherish and hold her close in my heart. When i reflect on our lives together growing up there were periods i could not see her. But as if she knew we were apart she would show up and more memories were made. My daughters Sara and Julie adored her. She always made them feel special and loved, from the moment she held them. And, she always ask about them and if they needed anything when we spoke. And, when they had their children she loved them, too. We loved talking about children, grandchildren and her great grandchildren. We shared a lot.Jean was an amazing woman. There was nothing she could not do if she set her mind to it. It would always amaze me how creative she was, at everything! She loved life and lived more in her 63 years than some people have or ever will. She married a wonderful man, Jerry and they raised their children together. I have many great memories of time spent with them both and all together. Their home was always open and welcomed all with love and open arms. A place to reflect and share time, no matter how short or long your visit. Always food and drink (loved it)they both are awesome cooks, trips to the river, their pond for fish feeding (she loved to feed their fish) or strolls around her yard which was always an adventure and pleasure to see the newest something popping up. She would share her new yard pop ups and then we'd discuss Jerry's. So much FUN!!! Life in full bloom. She made me smile, laugh and sometimes frown. A wonderful sister and friend. All she will no longer walk this earth with me in body she will walk with me always in my heart. I love you Jean!!!
