Jean became my closest friend after high school.  She was my maid of honor at my wedding and my daughter's godmother.  She was my sponsor for confirmation when I converted to Cathlicism.  She was generous beyond measure and was by my side at all important events in my life.  I loved her like a sister.  She died from breast cancer.  During the last two years of her life she was a model of courage and a constant source of inspiration to me.  I will always miss her.
