D. Jean Costello

2017 at 3:10pm in Plymouth, MA. She had been married to Thomas Scott Costello, a

World War II Merchant Marine and Boston Advertising Executive, for 60 years and

leaves behind two daughters and their families: Darcie Moss, Fred Moss, Tom Moss,

Jennifer Moss Doyle, James Doyle and their two children, Jimmy and Claire. Also, she

leaves her daughter, Connie Chappell, John Chappell, John Chappell Jr. and his wife

Julie Gallant Chappell, and Scott Chappell. She also leaves her sister, Ellen Weirich

Maye of Tucson, Arizona and her daughter, Caroline Maye and her children, Ian and

Marissa Maye.

Jean was born in Constantine, Michigan to her father, Eugene McDonald Beals, a

musician and her mother, Cora Mae Morrison, a nurse. She lived for 7 years with her

grandparents, Nellie and ‘Grandpa’ Morrison, then she moved to Marcellus,

Michigan to live with her mother and stepfather, Dr. Richard Ferdinand Weirich. She

attended Bethel Woman’s College in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, and would absolutely

love coming home to Klinger Lake in White Pigeon, Michigan every summer. She

loved the lake and swam like a fish! She went on to earn two degrees at

Northwestern University. Her most treasured accomplishment was becoming an RN

and practicing Pediatric Nursing in Chicago.

Jean was a wonderful Wife, Mother and Nana to her family. She loved her family

more than anything and she and Scott spent their married life primarily in

Framingham, MA and Cape Cod. They shared a lifetime of happy moments between

some hair‐raising sailing adventures to so many animal stories and simple happy

family times with their children and grandchildren and ultimately great

grandchildren. She loved to dance, swim, ride horses, garden, go to the ocean to fly

kites and watch the clouds. Above all else, she loved and cherished her family, as

they did her.

There will be a private service for the immediate family on May 15, 2017 at the

Doane Beal & Ames Funeral Home, 160 W. Main Street, Hyannis, MA 02601,

followed by burial at the Bourne National Veterans’ Cemetery, where she will be laid

to Rest in Peace Forever with her husband.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Yankee Golden Retriever Rescue:

P.O. Box 808, Hudson, Massachusetts 01749-0808 in Jean’s name.

Arrangements under the direction of Doane Beal & Ames, Hyannis, MA.
