Tim and Kathy’s children and our 2 boys had gone to St. Ursula school together since preschool, except for a few years they moved to Michigan. I have grown to love this family so much, and consider them very good friends of mine and my husband John. Through Kathy, and because of her kindness, she would bring Mrs. Hanna and my mother Rita Crump, to Hampton Community Center, and the 2 of them would walk 3 miles together almost every day. My mother always told me that Mrs. Hanna was her best friend in the world as they shared their families with each other, and talk ALOT. Mrs. Hanna had the BEST laugh ever, and was very contagious! I also think of Michele as such a special lady, who gives so much to others, especially her mom. I am so glad to know her as well. In knowing this family for so long, it is easy to see how special all of you are, and how proud Mrs. Hanna was of all of you. We will miss you so much Mrs. Hanna. Much love, and God Bless you all.
We are so sorry for your loss. Jean was a vibrant and loving person. She really made an impression on Jacob.
