The family needs to look at how blessed they were to have her in their lives as long as they did. She was and is a sweet woman and I am sure god is enjoying that beautiful smile now.

I am so sad to hear of Jolene’s passing. I LOVED her smile. Whenever or where ever I saw her she would always give me that big grin she had. The years of bowling with Jolene was so much fun!!! If my son was going to be a girl, I was going to name her Jolene, because I loved her bright smile. Rest easy Jolene, you sweet person.
