She was preceded in death by her husband Kenneth Harper; her parents Charlie and Willie Mai Hackett; sisters Billie Faye Cothron, Carlene McCloud, Joe Etta Dorris, Robbie Proctor, Jewel Carr; brothers George, Cecil and Oswald Hackett.
She is survived by son Rand (Theresa) Harper; grandson Chase (Kelly) Harper and great granddaughters Kaitlyn and Charleigh Harper.
Jean’s life was a testament to her strong values and firm Christian beliefs. Her memory will be cherished by all who knew her, and her spirit will inspire those she leaves behind.
She always had a smile, absolutely adored children, a love for all dogs, and an appetite for catfish and anything sweet.
In lieu of flowers and in honor and loving memory of Jean, give someone a reason to smile today.
Graveside service, by Pastor Jimmy Hendricks of Hermitage United Methodist Church, will be held at Hermitage Memorial Garden on Friday, June 19, 2026, at 11:00am
