I am so deeply saddened by the loss of our beloved Jean. Jean was my mentor when I began my career at NCR, back in the 70’s. She was a woman ahead of her time, well educated, hard working, with strong business acumen. She came to work impeccably dressed and ready for any challenge. She encouraged my career in communications and quickly became a good friend.

As part of the Fab Four, with Janie Reynolds and Lena Lonigro, she blessed us with her life lessons, her funny stories, and her infectious laugh. We celebrated birthdays and Christmas together each year, shared a sun filled week on beaches in Florida, and spent such a glorious weekend at The Biltmore Estate in North Carolina.

My memories of dear Jean go on and on.
I am blessed to have had such a loyal and kind-hearted friend, wise beyond her years and so generous with her love.

May you Rest in Peace, dear Jean, and find ever-lasting joy with Our Father in Heaven.

Jean Worth has been my friend for 40 years and what a friend she was! We worked together at NCR Corporation and she took me under her wing and showed me the ropes. We became instant buddies despite the 20 year age difference. She was the senior member of the Fabulous Four: myself, Jean, Lena Lonigro, and Angela Ionna. Birthday and holiday celebrations abounded over the last 4 decades! I can’t express what a true loss her passing is to me! But we will celebrate her well-lived life. Jean and I shared our belief and trust in Jesus Christ and shared our faith often with joy and hope! I know I will see her again when we are together in Glory. I can’t wait! No more sickness. No more pain. Until we meet again, dear friend, until we meet again.
