I met Jean at Promedica Memorial Hospital Therapy Pool. She attended our aquatic arthritis class. She was such a joy! She was afraid of the water at first, but she was willing to get out of her comfort zone to try it. She was a very strong woman, and handled the task like a pro! I was so sorry that her health kept her away from the pool. She enjoyed it very much.
She always talked about her family and grandchildren. Please know that you were all loved. I will definitely miss her and her giddy school girl laugh! My condolences to your family.
