Jean attended Seaforth District High School and went on to graduate from Westervelt Business School with a degree in accounting. She became an accomplished accountant and career woman. She devoted her life to the service of her family and her community. Her kindness and generosity blessed the lives of all those she encountered. She was a devoted follower of Jesus Christ and lived in a way as an example to others to do the same. She was generous with her love and time toward her family, who meant the world to her. She had a quirky sense of humor and loved a good story. For instance, once a hamburger from McDonalds that was missing the meat. She would remind you and laugh about it every time she would see you. When she would visit her Great grandchildren, she would give each of them a 20-dollar bill and say that it was “Mad Money” only to be spent on something fun and spontaneous. Her kind spirit will live on through the lives she influenced. She was so incredibly loved and will be sincerely missed.
