Jean Marie Slater was born on a crisp autumn day, October 26, 1931 in Irvington, New Jersey and passed away on Christmas Eve morning at Banner Boswell Hospital in Sun City. This was bitter sweet, as Jean’s favorite holiday was always Christmas. She must have wanted to celebrate Christmas with her mother in heaven. Jean was surrounded by family at her side providing love and comfort. Jean was a mother, sister, grandmother, and great grandmother. Jean had a 19 year career with Sentry Insurance as a customer representative till retirement. She tried her hand at real estate for a time until she realized it was time to enjoy life. Jean loved music, singing, dancing, movies, and shopping, especially shopping. Jean’s legacy will live on in the hearts of her sons and family, her son, Richard, wife Patricia, their three sons Patrick, wife Coletta and their daughter Kaia, Matthew, wife Rosie and their son Benjamin, daughter Siera, Stephen, wife Angel, her son Neal, wife Jodi, their son Rob with his son Eli and daughter Kaitlyn. She is also survived by her cousin Grace O’Brien, her sister Claire, husband Les Walker and her many nieces and nephews and dear friends. May you rest in peace Jean and enjoy your journey in heaven as you will be missed. A memorial service will be held in her memory at 10:00AM, Saturday, January 5, 2019 at West Resthaven Funeral Home at 6450 W. Northern Avenue, Glendale.
