Our deepest condolenses to the entire Metter family. Your mom will greatly missed. Your memories of her as well as your dad will help you get through this.
I almost feel like not saying a word, as with friends, words need not be spoken, (but, i cant, you know me..talk talk talk) hehe
Jean and i were tied together in tnought several years back, after Clem died. She knows, and I know and lets leave it at that. But,
I wrote her a letter, and she knows my feelings towards her.
So, that leaves the Metter kidies.
hehe,
John,??? again, i dont need to say a word, but, know that, i am deeply sorry. Our parents, were a group..a fun group, alot like our group. Its been hard watching them all go, sad for me. The word FALSTAFF comes to mind. hehehe I am here for you now and forever.!

Dear Metter Family, I never met your mom, but I am good friends with John and Stephanie. John is a wonderful, loving person and I can only imagine that your mom was just as wonderful. I've heard great stories about her and she lived life and enjoyed it. I hope she did not suffer. Love Always, Amy Balettie (formerly of Monroe, MI)
Jean you are going to be missed greatly. Even though I have only known you for the last 2 years you meant so much to me. I will miss our conversations at your kitchen table. Who's going to shake their head at me and laugh now when I mentioned something about "you know who". I will never forget our lunches at the bowling alley and your birth control story. You were an amazing person and I am blessed to have shared memories with you. To her family- I am sorry for your lost but we all know that she is up there watching over everyone. God bless!
To Susie Kowlok and her family,

To the Metter Family,
We are sorry to hear of your loss. Jean was a very fun loving person. I met her at the bowling alley and looked forward to seeing her every Saturday when my kids bowled with the Optimist Club. She reminded me alot of my mother. She was a "hoot". Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

I had the fortunate pleasure of meeting and talking with Jean on a few different occation and let me just say Jean was very seet and delightful lady. I very much enjoyed our conversations and know that she will be greatly missed. Take care and God Bless.
