She was a long-time member of St. Patrick Catholic Church, Villa Nova and was currently a member of St. Joseph Catholic Church, DeWitt.
Jean enjoyed her monthly Bunco club and took pleasure in meeting with her many friends. She was very social and delighted in her family time. Jean was a passionate fan of University of Iowa sports-particularly the women's and men's basketball programs. She rarely missed a televised game. Jean's final act of love was being a tissue donor.
Surviving are her twin sister, Joan (Jim) Puck of DeWitt; brothers, Joe (Linda) McGlynn of Camanche and Frank (Christine) McGlynn of DeWitt. She is also survived by four nieces, five nephews, ten great-nieces and nine great-nephews.
