The family would like to thank the excellent staff at Edgewood for their care of Jean during her last several years due to the ravages of dementia/Alzheimer's. The family would also like to thank the excellent staff at Rocky Mountain Hospice. They, as well, have been a blessing and comfort to Jean and her immediate family during this difficult process. There will be no services.
