Jean will always be remembered as a lovely lady who was gracious and kind. She helped us with the Starodub family tree and had a prodigious memory of her family and related to us many family memories. We remember the tea and dainties she served not that long ago and all the stories she had to tell. Her generosity and sharing will always be in our hearts. - Posted by: Gary and Pat Hamilton (cousin) on: Apr 05, 2013

Jean and I had a special connection while we worked at S.M.H.C. She and I shared our birth dates. I'm a little younger but July 19 was our day. I remember working with her and she was one of the kindest people I knew. She was a true "Lady"! My sincere sympathy to her family and friends. Rest in Peace Jean. - Posted by: Teri Walker (work mate) on: Mar 30, 2013
