My heart aches for the entire Minneman family. You have my deepest sympathy for such a loss. Jean was really a great lady who was warm and a pleasure to know. We had some great times working together and shared a lot of laughs doing it. Her laugh was unique and always something great to hear. She will be missed... May you always remember her laugh.

I am so sad to have seen Jean’s passing in the paper. I worked with Jean at the Indiana REMCs from when she started there to her retirement. I loved working with her so much. She was always so kind and sweet and smart. She was so much fun to be around. We loved her. Emily Schilling and I, who are now recently retired ourselves, were talking about getting together with her for lunch at the Noble Romans for old times sake. God bless and keep her, and prayers to Amy, who we got to see grow up, and the rest of her family.
