Jean is in our thoughts so many times each month as we drive by the family home and reminisce about the great times with horse shows and neighborhood happenings. I always considered Sandra as another daughter, an outstanding person. We look forward to seeing Jean in Heaven in the near future. Walt and Toni. 2-29=24

Sandra, Scott and family..
She was a wonderful woman. When she moved back here from AZ, tried to keep in touch..Left a couple of messages
to get together but not sure if she was dealing with health problems at that time. Always enjoyed her and Ken when they lived here in PineCreek/Thunderbird Estates.
