I am moved and saddened to hear of Jean's death.  I remember her writing something on this listserve a while back, in which she said it was very important to her to be "actually poor" as she lived out the remainder of her life.  This stood in contrast to my own choice to keep at least part of my focus on generating income to sustain life at least comfortably, and to not be poor.  When I think of Jean, I think of those words she wrote.

In gratitude,
Marsha

Subject: [ICA_AAC] Completed life of Jean Long

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
