Jean grew up in Lawrenceville, where she graduated from high school. She would soon find employment as a banker at the Peoples National Bank in Lawrenceville before marrying Gerald and dedicating the rest of her life to being a farm wife. She found great fulfillment in taking care of the house and all who called it "home". Like clockwork, every day and at every meal, she'd have a meal prepared, and in between, she'd busy herself keeping a meticulous house. She especially enjoyed time out in her yard, tending to her flowers, as their blossoming brought her a sense of well-earned satisfaction. She also found joy in painting, especially plates, and this was a means by which she could exercise her creativity.
Anyone who knew Jean could attest to her strong, independent nature. While she could be particular at times, her legacy of excellence in all things provided a foundation upon which her family could thrive. In this way, it was evident that she loved them wholeheartedly.
She also loved her community, as she was involved with a number of local organizations. She was president of the Palestine Women's Club and a lifetime member of the Merom Conference Center. A woman of deep, abiding faith, she was a longtime member of Pleasant View Church. We are thankful that Jean entrusted her life to Jesus, whose mercy and grace have led her from death to eternal life.
Burial will be in the Pleasant View Cemetery.
