I was so sorry to hear of Jean's passing in the newspaper. I live in Chilton and Jean adopted a sheltie named Toni from our group (Wisconsin Sheltie Rescue) many years ago. They had a great time together and I saw Jean often, taking care of Toni when she went on her travels. My sympathy to the family.
I am so sorry to hear of Jean's passing. She was a friend in Fine Arts Club. Our son lives in Parkers Prairie MN, just a few houses away from where Jean grew up. I gave her a picture I'd taken of her old house, and we always had fun talking about Parkers Prairie.

We want to extend our deepest sympathy to Jeans family in your great loss
Jean was a special person to us. We traveled together in Japan, skied at Telemark on Christmas holidays, played bridge and Jean was an outstanding chef for her dinner parties.
The world lost a true pioneer who was never afraid to blaze a new trail to find a way to help others.
Our love goes out to you,
Dorothy & Harry Hall
