Pat and family - so sorry about your loss. When we were in high school I remember your Mom as a very kind, gentle and loving person.

I am so sad to read this, my heart felt sympathies and prayers for her family. Jean taught me many things that I still carry with me. She had an abundance of love and kindness with a zest for life that was seen in her smile. Pat and family I am so sorry for your loss. I am so blessed to have known her. Peace be with you all.

Grandmothers and roses are much the same. Each are God's masterpieces with different names.

Thank God you are in heaven now. No longer suffering. You lived a great long life. Driving, walking and living on your own at 85 yrs old! It is hard to not have you here. I will love you and remember you always. Love your 1st Grandchild, Heather
