To Bob and all the family:
Our condolences on Jean's passing. She was a lovely lady
And a good friend that we knew
From the 1950s in Chicago.

So sorry to know that Jean is gone. I did not know that she was in West Des Moines, so close to Clive where I live. She was my sorority sister and a classy friend.
