Aunt Jean, Like a mother, and a friend. Someone you could always depend on until the very end. A woman of grace and integrity, a fine dresser was she. My heart breaks and aches, knowing I will no longer see your face. The great times, the laughter, joy and memories will live on in my heart, knowing we'll never be apart. Love you and miss you.gone but never forgotten.

Miss Jean you were a Classy Lady and you dressed nice at all times for the 50+ years I have known you. I can still see your smiling face and hear your deep laughter. At times you would say the funniest things and I would be laughing so hard. I will miss you but never forget you! Rest Easy Miss Jean, I love you. Veronica & The Gates-Tucker Family.

"Miss Jean" as we knew her was a wonderful woman, always had a smile, was a wonderful cook, awesome caregiver to me, always took care with her appearance, always interesting conversationalist, and was always so kind and tender with my therapy dog. Everything she did, she did with integrity, kindness, compassion and love! She will be greatly missed!❤️ Mark and Miriam Johnson
