Jean was a vital force in Unity Spiritual Centre (Hamilton). She served as treasurer and then president of the board of directors. Jean also became an LUT and wedding officiant. Her constant smile and welcoming ways will be missed. Jean always claimed that one of the keys to her longevity was Having A Good Time.
