Jean was a very special and dear friend of my mother, Betty Canfield. When days were difficult for my mom, all she needed was an hour or two on the phone with your mom, and she would miraculously feel better. We were so grateful for your mom, because she knew just what to say to my mom to give her the encouragement that she was needing. So sorry for your loss. Losing a loved one is always difficult , especially your mother. Hugs and prayers to the Lorenzini family, from the Canfield family in Racine.
