Jose and I are so sorry for Anna, Gary and the family. I know they will miss Jean so much and so will we. She was too cute and so peppy. Her smile was warm and gracious. As soon as we walked into church, there she was. Dressed perfectly with her beautiful white hair and pretty nails. But oh how glorious she must be now, resting in peace. As a Disciple of Christ, she is assured of her salvation. We are inspired by her life and will truly miss her.
