Jean is a graduate of Westville High School, class of 1974. In 1977, she married James E. Burton and became the mother of his son, Scott Alan Burton. Jean and Jim resided in Westville the majority of their 36 years together. Her daughter, Samantha A. (William) Losher was born in 1979 and now lives in Bloomington with her three granddaughters, Mercedes "Sadie" Baybordi (Sami Medel), Annabelle Baybordi, and Elaina Losher whom all meant the world to her. James and Scott have preceded her in death.
Jean was a local hairdresser in Westville for many years, cherishing the time with her customers who became her friends and family. She went on to work for the Westville School District where she taught P.E. and retired in 2018 as one of the school's secretaries. Jean made an impact on many children's lives during her time at the school.
Jean was a member of Morey Chapel Church of Christ in Westville, IL. She enjoyed gardening, crafts, quilting, and crocheting. She especially enjoyed attending sporting events of her grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
Jean loved to camp and loved to travel. She was excited to venture to craft festivals, take trips to thrift stores, vacation at beaches, and camp in the mountains. Her mom would often tell her "It's always an adventure with you". May she enjoy her grandest adventure ever.
The family would like to thank the Community (Carle) Cancer Center in Normal, IL for providing loving treatment for Jean during her battle with cancer.
