As Gloria and Olga, Jean’s daughters-in-law, were added to the family, they too became welcomed assets in her life and she showed a deep love and appreciation for each of them.

Their travels also included many cruises visiting many foreign island ports, a trip to the Holy Land, and several European Countries, as well as numerous trips to Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
