You are all in our thoughts & prayers.
One of the things I will remember most about Aunt Jean is her smile, how it lit up her whole face (and an entire room) I don’t think I ever saw her without that smile. May God give you comfort and strength at this time.

Dear Aunt Jean’s Family,
All of you are in our thoughts and prayers. We have fond memories of Aunt Jean and all the fun we used to have at the Fair Christmas parties and reunions. Aunt Jean was quick to laugh and join in the fun.
May you find peace in knowing she is in Heaven with God our Heavenly Father. She is no longer in pain or suffering. She has been reunited with Uncle Peach and Kathy. What a blessing that must be for all of you!
God grant you peace as you face each new day! Know you are loved by many!
Love,
Linda and Gaylon Geiman
Ann and Ron Darrenkamp
