I met Miss Harvey through my work at Glenburnie. I just wanted to say that I enjoyed her loving spirit and her ability to treat others as she wanted to be treated. She was a really beautiful woman Inside and Out. She was friendly and always fought the good fight for as long as she could. I'll miss her and how her sweetness touched my heart. Sincerely, Mary Reese.

I became friends with Jean as a result of my friendship with her sister Maxine. We were actually a foursome as Jean and my sister Edna were friends as well. We reconnected in 2012 when she blessed me by doing a great deal of the planning in celebration of our fiftieth wedding anniversary. She really had a knack for beautifying those types of occasions. We were so grateful to have her expertise enrich our celebration. We extend our deepest condolences to her sister Maxine and her children and grandchildren.

Jean and I met as Freshmen at Saint Gertrude High School. We remained friends for more than 50 years. Jean attended our 45th and 50th high school reunions. She was a friend to everyone. We all loved her. I will be out of town for the funeral but I want to extend my deepest sympathy to her family. She talked about each of you with great pride. You were blessed to have her as the family matriarch.
