Jean was a resident of Rumson from 1978 to 1994 where she raised her three children. She lived in Long Branch from 1994 to 2009, then resided in Lakewood from 2009 to present. Over the years she became a well-known Realtor at the Jersey Shore, starting at Bahrs Real Estate and moving on to Coldwell Banker for many years. Jean was still practicing real estate in her final year.
She was also an avid bridge player. Jean enjoyed hosting bridge as well as partaking in the recreation on a regular basis. Jean was loved by many for her kind and generous personality. If you needed anything, she was the type of friend to be there in an instant.
