Marilyn Waldeck
Dear Edna It is with deep sadness we feel with the loss of Jean, We are all going to miss her and loved her dearly.. She was an inspiration to all of us in the neighborhood as we have watched over the past few years as she walked twice a day no matter the weather. We would see you both out helping each other doing the yard work or tending to the flowers and tomato plants she loved trying to grow. She was a strong and funny lady ! She will be in a peaceful place now and still watching over you. Remember all the fun times we have shared over the years and your path ahead will be a lighter load. Marilyn Waldeck & Family.
