Jean enjoyed being a homemaker and was always a country girl at heart and happiest when she was out walking either at Koob Orchard or her sons orchard. She loved her birds, reading and flower gardens. She was a member of All Saints Catholic Church, St Annes Circle and All Saints Choir. Jean loved her kids, grandkids and enjoyed all the times they would visit and proud of their accomplishments. Mom you were always a tough old gal and kept your chin up right till the end always staying positive. You are an inspiration to all of us. We love and miss you.

The family would like to send a very special thank you to her neighbors, Ricky and Don who did so much for her when we were unable to be there for her.
