We met Jean at Myrtle Beach. From day one it was like we were instant friends. Golf cart rides, sitting on their front porch and having wonderful conversations. A rare couple who loved life and others and was always willing to help.It was so obvious how much Jean and CW loved each other. CW please find strength through your memories.
