Not often do we come across a soul as sweet & pure as Jean was (but with just a hint of sass!) How incredibly fortunate were the lives she touched, and for so long. Which, of course, makes a loss like this all the harder. She will be in our hearts forever. Karen, Steve and boys, we love
you so very much. You are all deeply in our thoughts …
Never have I had the pleasure of knowing a more kind-hearted, gentle lady. Your sweetness and kind, loving nature was passed down to your daughter and your grandsons and what a wonderful legacy indeed! Mrs. C: they live on in you and beautifully so. You touched me and everyone who knew you in a very special way. You will be missed!
With much love,
Linda and Ron Hollis
