Jean graduated from Nixon High School. She was adventurous, liked to travel, and see and experience new things. She married and moved to the Portland, Oregon area for 6 years and returned to Texas as soon as she could. Later in life she met and married Grady Clark. They were married in May of 1989 at the LDS Temple in Dallas, Texas and these last 27 years with him were the happiest of her life. She was feisty and loved spending time with her friends. She loved her dogs, serving in her church, the scriptures, crocheting, reading, crossword puzzles and chocolate. She often had a giant Mr. Goodbar or Tootsie roll within grasp. She was devoted to her family. Even through life’s challenges, she always remained quiet, compassionate, considerate, easygoing and attentive. She never complained or spoke ill of others, unless she got behind the wheel where she utilized many of her unique idioms. She was a delight to her friends and family, kind and humorous. She liked to dress well, was always well put together and in style. Jean was preceded in death by her son Lindy “Rusty” Quinton and her sister and best friend, Irene Mercier.
