Jean loved to bake.

The splendors she created in her kitchen have literally been enjoyed by thousands of people over the years.

From Church Bake Sales to dropping off baking to bereaved family and friends, Jean was always generous in sharing her time and talents with all.

Her signature homemade baked buns were an all-time favorite for many.

A special lady has gone to rest.
