Fremont, NE Wednesday, July 18, 2018 Very sorry for your loss of Jean. She was my boss at the motel and was a very loving and kind lady. She had so much to give even with the losses she went through. She managed the Motel for Duane & Lucretia Trometer and I had known them too through Bahner Olds-Cadillac, I miss them all, even though I am in my Seventies now and surely appreciate those who have passed before me including Marv and her sons.With Loving Sympathy,
Joan Porter
