I worked with Jean at Presbyterian Support for about 14 yrs & yet still didn´t know her! She was a very private, sensible, clever person - a whiz with numbers - but never one to gossip or raise her voice. Her family meant the world to her and she´d proudly speak of their endeavours & accomplishments. My husband and I knew Bruce, Julia and Jacque from way back in their school days and can understand what a loss they will each be feeling now. Our thoughts are with you! Thank you for caring for her for so well.
