"Jean Easterly and her daughter, Wendy Stratton, are back in Naples after 'fumbling their way through Pairs subways and German markets.' they were in Europe four weeks and Jean say the highlight was an Algerian midget in a green velvet suit who guided them through part of their tour. Jean, who is an expert masseuse herself, stopped in every massage parlor she could find along the way and says the technique is much rougher and not as precise there as it is in the States. Although her wallet was stolen between Monaco and Milan they had a great time and the climax to the summer was a trip on to Tulsa, Okla., to greet a new grandson. Jean's other daughter, Barbara Bell, lives thee now with her orthopedic surgeon husband."

At the time of her death she lived in Denver, CO and was divorced from her second husband. Her death occurred in a Hotel/casino in Las Vegas, NV when she accidentally drowned in bath tub.
