Jean Herold, 81 years old, of Casper Wyoming, died on October 16th, 2014. Jean fought for her life for 6 weeks following a cardiac arrest and numerous complications.
Jean was born on November 25th, 1932 in Framingham, Massachusetts where she lived on a farm with her parents and two brothers, and enjoyed vacations on Bear Lake. She married and raised eight children in between moves to North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Georgia, Colorado, England, and Hawaii, Vermont, later moving to California with her new beau, George. She always said to enjoy the good wherever we lived and there were good and bad people everywhere. We had many family picnics and outings on Sundays. Jean has always especially loved babies, dolls, and reading- mostly history, historical fiction and mysteries. Later on she spent many happy hours working on photo albums and genealogy. Jean could talk a blue streak and there were always at least 3 goodbyes: in the house, at the door and at the curbside!
Jean spent her last six years with her loving husband James Herold, of Casper where they has enjoyed filling their new home with their treasured teddy bears, books, and knick knacks. They also made frequent trips to Jim's cabin, where Jean could catch up on her reading and watch Jim feed the deer and turkeys. They also spent hours talking to each other on their Ubi Duos and enjoyed spending time with family.
Jean leaves behind her husband, her children; Lynn C. Wilson of New Bern, North Carolina, Rhonda E. Sellars of Leominister, Massachusetts, Laurie Behney of Harrisburg, Pennslyvania, Debra Desmarais of San Diego, California, Theodore C. Desmarais a traveling trucker, Donald Desmarais of San Diego, Steven Desmarais of Palmer, Massachusetts, and Shari Kha of San Diego, and her faithful dog, Honey. She will be dearly missed.
