Remembering Jean

In Remembrance Of
Wilma Jean Hardman Forester
October 9, 1933 - November 14, 2004.

On Sunday, November 14, 2004 Jean Forester went home to be with the Lord.  Jean was the mother of Teri Romick, grandmother of Caleb and Kelsey Romick, and great-grandmother of Toby Romick.

Jean had been hospitalized with a variety of ailments since early 2004.  Teri and Kelsey spent most of the summer in Wheeling, WV with Jean.  Caleb, Brandi and Toby made two trips to see Jean during the spring and summer of 2004.  We are all very thankful that Jean and Toby got to spend a little time together.

We've included a few of the last photos taken with Jean.  Her official obituary is posted below.

We all miss Jean very much.  She was a wonderful, loving, caring person.
