Jean enjoyed reading books, playing cribbage, winning against Papa at card games, and taking her children or grandchildren on a “happening”. Jean’s tenacity and strength did earn her the nickname ‘General Jean’; however she would ultimately correct you and tell you it’s ‘Angel Jean’. Now, reunited with her husband & son, she will forever be our Angel Jean.
