Grandchildren will allow you to brush their hair provided you give them a bowl of sprinkles; Holy water has the ability to cure ADHD, the sniffles and a multitude of other ailments; never worry about lost items, Saint Anthony will help you find them; don't let being blind stop you from driving if there is a person sitting next to you that can see; children rarely do anything wrong they are just misunderstood; if at a buffet bring a big purse; there is always room for one more, two more, three more…;when stranded in a hotel in a hurricane enjoy the crackers and the trip; never leave home without your rosary; and most importantly love unconditionally. Loved ones will be reminded of her when hearing phrases such as "behave", "don't be a tyrant", "kill them with kindness", "Jesus Marion Joseph", and "a dollar and a dream." Jean wished to continue her lessons as part of the Anatomical Gift program at Albany Medical School. A small graveside service will take place upon return of her remains. There will also be a memorial service in her honor with a date to be determined.Obituary – a lengthy history of the deceased, generally published in advance of services containing specifics as to arrangements, family members, etc.
