Mercy Hospital in Pittsburgh, PA where she donated her organs. Jean was born on May 6, 1944
in Sharon, PA. She was the daughter of the late Francis and Bertha (Wilhelm) Herrmann.
Jean was a faithful member of St. Joseph Catholic Church in Sharon, PA. She was a devoted
High School Business Teacher, retired from Kennedy Catholic High School, Badger High School
and West Middlesex High School. Over the many years that she was teaching, she coached
several different sports including golf, basketball, softball, and cross country.

two bowling leagues.

years. She adopted or rescued 20 dogs and several cats. When Jean arrived in heaven, there
were too many past pets to name waiting for her.
