Jean was such an energetic, fun, and creative aunt.  I have many special memories of time with Glen and Jean.  

Ron and I visited them in South Missouri when all four of the cousins were little.  I especially remember going to a near by swimming hole and swinging on a rope to see who could make the biggest splash.

In the 80’s we moved to NE Colorado and Glen and Jean lived in Scottsbluff, NE.  They were our closest family and Ron, I and our 3 kids visited them several times.  The Four cousins were teenagers by then and we had many adventures.  On one visit Jean took just us girls for a drive down the main drag with the windows down and the radio blaring.  We all sang along as loudly as we could. When Jean drove through a yellow light, she remarked, “Oh that light was purple, which means speed up and hurry through”

Jean was a great cook and would prepare lots of yummy salads and desserts when we visited.  One time Glen said, “I wish you would just make real food”. I think that he preferred meat and “tatters”.

We also visited Glen and Jean a few times when they lived at Manitou Springs.   I especially remember them driving us to the top of Pikes Peak.  Jean and our daughter, Correne (who was usually a scaredy-cat)were hanging out the windows and laughing and hollering the whole way.  

When we told our two boys that Aunt Jean had passed away, they both said, “Oh , she was the Aunt who pinched our cheeks.”
Jean was a master at having fun, making us laugh, pinching chubby baby cheeks, and seeing purple lights.
