Jean attended North 4th street grade school, Washington Junior High School and Albuquerque High School, which at the time was the only public high school in the city. She knew everyone at Albuquerque High and developed lifelong friendships
pgp with many of her fellow students. Jean was a very social lady. She was a 58 year member of Epsilon Sigma Alpha Gamma Delta Chapter where she had many close friends and worked on many philanthropic projects. She was a very talented artist, painting beautiful watercolors to decorate her home and for her family. She loved to entertain at her home and she loved to dine out with friends, family and her sister, Norma. Jean was most proud of her family and home and was the best cook. While she was never a career woman, she loved being a homemaker and doing those special things for her family that only a great mom can do. While she will leave a huge void in our lives, we will always have the fond memories of her doing what she did best, just being a great mom, caring for her family, and always doing what was right.
