Deepest sympathies to John, Lori-Ann and family. Jean and I were very close school pals from Sundown, then we lost contact, till she took over writing the Sundown News for the Carillon News. I was not aware that Jean had cancer, I am deeply saddened by her passing--may she rest in peace with her deceased family.
