Jean was well-versed in many subjects and especially loved to talk biblical history and the promise of a paradise earth. Jean also enjoyed Broadway plays, musicals and ballets and attended many events with her daughters and granddaughters. Her love of travel and adventure led her to become a travel agent which led to trips to Africa and China.
