Dear Dave and family, Please accept my sincere condolences at this this time of sorrow. Jean was a very special lady and I treasure the memories of working with her at the Music Department. She was my support, my confidant and my friend. A beautiful lady in every way..Rest in peace , dear Jean Kaye Pottie

My favorite memory of Aunt Jean, was as a teenager, having many chats with her while she was tanning on the Lido poolside at the Waeg. She was a beautiful lady. I loved the color of her hair and her soft spoken kind voice. I was proud to say she was my Godmother. Uncle David, Robert, Paul and Stephen, I hope you have similar loving memories to forever hold in your hearts. Today and always, may fond memories bring you peace, support, and strength. With my love and deepest sympathy as we remember Jean.

Deepest condolences to your family during this difficult time!

We are so sorry to hear of Aunt Jean's passing, she was such a beautiful person.

Jean was always a gracious, kind and loving woman. I respected her very much and admired her deep and abiding love for her five sons, her boys. I am so very sorry to hear of her passing and much love and sympathy go out to all the members of her family. She will always be remembered. Sabrina Mercer

Sorry to learn of Jean's passing , David. I can remember Jean and Joan as young twins of about 11/12 when Pete and I would have been some of the South End friends. How wonderful that you have had more than 60 years together - what a blessing and what lovely memories you will have to comfort you in the coming days. Wish we could meet at Mass and share a comforting hug. Will keep you, and Jean's soul, in my prayers.Barbara

David and family: My sincerest sympathies on the passing of your precious Jean. I can still see Jean rocking Baby Peter with the "bunny blanket" wrapped around him so carefully on Dakin Drive. What sweet memories of a beautiful person. Know you all are in my thoughts and prayers during these difficult days. Judy

My sincere condolences to Jean's family. I met Jean in the 70's when we were working for Equifax, Bayers Road Shopping Center. She was a lovely, kind and sweet woman. After all these years I can recall her thoughfulness and how caring she was. Rest in peace my friend.

Near a shady wall a rose once grew, Budded and blossomed in God's free light, Watered and fed by the morning dew, Shedding it's sweetness day and night. As it grew and blossomed fair and tall, Slowly rising to loftier height, It came to a crevice in the wall Through which there shone a beam of light.Shall claim of death cause us to grieve And make our courage faint and fall? Nay! Let us faith and hope receive-- The rose still grows beyond the wall, Your Mother is that rose and she will always be the light within you. thinking of you at this time Selina and Paul

I met Jean at the Waeg when our children were learning to swim , in the 1960's. I have been missing her on the pool deck for the last few years.... I'm saddened to hear that she has gone to a much better swimming pool with the angels. RoseMarieMahar
