Deborah, Frankie, Alice & all family members.
I am so very sorry to hear of Jean's passing. I knew that she wasn't well when I saw her last in May, but I am so glad that I did get to see her twice in the past year and get to talk to her cheery and sweet personality. She will be missed by so many in the churches and in the family. My mom was shocked to hear the news and is sorry that she won't be able to attend the funeral service due to her fragile back. Jean & Alice were always so helpful to both of my parents all of the years that I didn't live in VA and I could have never thanked Jean enough. Deborah, I remember the fun days we had at your house on Beech Street when we were kids. Alice, I know you will miss Jean terribly as we all will, and thank you for all the care that you gave my mom and dad.

Love & blessings to you all.

We will always remember Jean's smiling face in the choir at Memorial UMC. She was always so happy and glad to see everyone she met. Our prayers will be with the family at this time.
