Dear Bonnie, Margaret and family,
I was saddened to learn of gramma Jean’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad time in life. May your fond memories substain you in these trying days.
Gramma Jean was loved by all who had the honor to know her. She always had a smile on her face and a joke to tell. Hugs were freely given!
She was always working in the kitchen when we had meals at the church, serving, doing dishes and cleaning.
Her love for the Lord was very apparent in everything she did. She will be greatly missed by all!
Look forward with gladness to the day you will be reunited with your precious mother, gramma, and great-gramma in heaven! God bless you all!
In Christian Love,
Janice

My thoughts are with the Family for the loss of a Beautiful Lady. I will always cherish the 50 years I shared with My extended Family.
Grandma Jean was such an amazing woman and will be severely missed. She touched so many lives and noone ever had a bad thing to say about her. She was always one of my favourite women at church. RIP Grandma Jean until we meet again.
