My prayers go out to your family in the time of great loss. Jean was our dear friend in Tupperware and was loved by so many. We know she is with our Lord in heaven and they are welcoming her with open arms.
Denise Racine Lessens and I, Michael Lessens send our condolences at the passing of our friend Jean Huver. She helped me enter the business of selling Tupperware and joined in singing at St. Mary’s up until she couldn’t due to her declining health. She was always stalwart in her relationships with others and her many Tupperware customers. She will be missed. God bless you, Jean, and may you rest in peace.
My sympathies and prayers to your entire family. I am so sorry to hear of your loss, but am happy she is now walking streets of gold with Jesus. I remember Jean as always having a ready smile. Loved by all who knew her.
Love and hugs.❤️
