To Brian, Sheelagh, Catherine, and families,
Condolences and kind thoughts as you remember Jean, a cherished and much
loved lady.
I've fond memories of Jean as we were both Teacher Aides at Russell Street School
in the 70s.
Whenever I saw Jean over the years, she was always bright and bubbly.

Warm wishes, Margaret
