There aren’t many words that would do justice to honor such a beautiful loving soul as she was. One thing is for sure is that she’s standing alongside our Saviour and she heard the words Well done thy good and faithful servant. How blessed I feel to have gotten to know and love this dear lady and her family. Prayers of comfort and lots of love being sent to you all.
Vivian Hollingsworth Slater. Aunt Jean you will be missed . My thoughts are with your family.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of Your family. Jean was an inspiration and mentor to me for 35 years. So many sweet memories of the fun I had with this beautiful lady. Loved her so much.
I wish I could have spent more time with you. I really enjoyed our last visit. RIP cousin!
Mom, it’s only been a few days, and I miss you so. Would love to watch you as you walk the streets of gold. Kiss Brenda for me, as I miss my sister also. Is Heaven is everything ayou thought it would be? Or so much more. I’ll see you again, when it’s my time. Love you. Judy
