She was born June 29, 1929, in Fountain City, a daughter of Alvin and Frieda (Knecht) Abts.
Jean attended Fountain City Schools, graduating from Fountain City High School.
On Feb. 17, 1947, Jean was united in marriage to Lloyd Abts at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Fountain City; and to this union three children were born. Lloyd preceded Jean in death in June 1974.

She also enjoyed cross stitching. Many of her cross stitching creations will be cherished by her family forever.
What Jean will be remembered for mostly is her deep love and devotion for her entire family, especially her great-grandchildren, whom she would share all the new pictures of with those going to the bank in Fountain City, one of her favorite destinations in town.
Jean will be deeply and sadly missed by her three children, Rich Abts of Fountain City, Mary (Russ) Andress of Fountain City and Barb Stohr of Glenwood City; three grandchildren, Amy Andress, James Andress and Molly (Jon) Blaser; two precious great-grandchildren, Morgan and Miley Blaser; two brothers, Emmons (Pat) Scheidegger of Redwood City, Calif., and Jerry (Judy) Scheidegger of Fountain City; sister-in-law, Margaret "Fritzie" Scheidegger of Eau Claire; also by several nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

A funeral service will be held Saturday, Feb. 26, at 11 a.m. at St. Michael's Lutheran Church, Fountain City, with Pastor Elroy V. Conradt officiating.
