Condolences
To all the family from the bottom of my heart I’m sorry she was like a mother to me forever in my heart the same to all of you
Rest in peace Jean.
My condolences to Edwina and the Moore family. My thoughts are with you at this time.
Our beautiful Aunt and step mom after Nan, Georgina passed. I will miss you both..until we meet again 😢 💔 ❤.
There are no words to express how deep this loss is. To know Jean is to deeply love Jean. Never have I ever heard one negative word about her and at 92 years old, that in itself is one of her many legacies. Imagine, in this day and age, someone of this age being honoured with this comment – it speaks volumes as to how she lived her life, and we all benefitted greatly from that. Kind, generous, giving, loving, interested, witty and faithful are just a few words that come to mind when thinking of her. Fly high Nanny Jean. You are already deeply missed.
Wayne and I send Love Hugs and prayers to the Family
