passed away on April 17 in her home surrounded by her daughters. Jean was born on May 8, 1936. She was the eldest of eight children. Jean married Bill Kosorok on January 1, 1955.

Jean was an amazing and loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, and friend. Her greatest joy in life was spending time with her family. She enjoyed cooking, baking, and gardening. She loved the holidays and any family gathering, which she made so special. We will miss her kind heart and beautiful smile.
