Jean moved back to Longmont in 2012 as it had always been home no matter where she lived. She also traveled extensively with her husband in their various campers to most of the United States. In 2018 Jean’s final bucket list of places to go and things to do were achieved when in May her granddaughter Pat took her to New York City and then in October her granddaughters Pat & Penny took her white water rafting on the Colorado River.
