I was lucky enough to work with Jean at Katie's clean and green. She became a wonderful friend and I am so very sad to hear of her passing. My love and prayers go out to her family and friends.
The Shearer Family members are truly a Second Family to The Salm Family. We were neighbors for many years on Ridgewood Ave in Lakewood. The memory I would like to share of Jeannie is that on one night she and I were on the front porch steps of her home with Chuck. Her and Chuck lived downstairs at that time and Al and Mary lived upstairs. I was still in college at CSU and had just completed 3 years and all of the prep courses to apply to Physical Therapy School at CSU. My big sister Sarah had just encouraged me to send in my application, but I did not feel confident enough in myself to apply because I was sure in my mind that I was not good enough or smart enough. Jeannie in her gentle and quiet way told me that the only loss would be me not trying, and she had never known me to be a quitter so why was I quitting before even trying. As a result of talking to both of my "big Sisters", the next day I turned in my application to Physical Therapy school. Long story short, I have been a Physical Therapist for over 34 years now and truly would not be here today if it had not been for Sarah and Jeannie encouraging their "Little Sister" to be all that she could be! My heart is heavy for our loss, but I know heaven has gained such a wonderful soul!
Always will have fond memories of growing up next to the Shearer Family. They are wonderful people. Of course, the Lombardo family was a great group as well. Fond memories on both sides. God bless all of you and my families' prayers are with you all. Anthony Salm and Family
