I too am saddened at Jean's passing.  My direct contact with  her dates back to the early 70’s on the West Side but I still remember her well.  We recently had an extended phone conversation during which time she updated me on the Archives Project and we updated each other on our lives.  It was a pleasure to talk with her, and I know she will be missed by so many. 

Namaste,
Jan Allen  (formerly Latham)

Archives Team - 

With profound sadness I share this message with you on the Archives Team of the death of Jean Long. 

You may know that she was taken to the emergency room March 26th with a bad leg infection. A half dozen people became part of her Care Bears team, staying with her each day. Overtime she fought difficulty swallowing, heart fibrillation, high white blood count, low oxygen rate, low blood pressure and pneumonia. She was taken back to the ICU early this morning (April 8) and passed away at 10:30 AM. 

I know you share with all Jean's colleagues our sadness today and our gratitude for her life. 

Information on the celebration of her life will be sent to you soon. 

Peace, Karen Snyder
