She met her lifelong sweetheart, Bobby Joe, at the age of twelve. The two married when they were 20 and were married for 64 wonderful years when Bobby Joe went home to be with the Lord in 2017.
Jean loved spending time with her family. It brought her great joy to make a homecooked meal for her family and she spent many summer days canning for family and friends. Her pride and joy were her flower gardens, she always had a large collection of flowers to tend to. Jean was also an avid wrestling fan and made sure she tuned in at least twice a week.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Bobby Joe West; sister, Louise Teal; brothers, Gary Gresham, Amos "Biddy" Garfield Gresham, Sydney Gresham; and son-in-law, Michael Thomas Landes.
