Jean Frances Ragonese

Jean was a lucky lady. She enjoyed the casinos. Atlantic City was good but she normally struck large in Chester. It was the phone calls to husband , Charles that made the excitement. Shouts of “ I Won Big” would fill his ear and her joy was palatable. Another source of joy was their motor home. Trips with grand daughter, Ava to Dutch Wonderland with amusements for Ava and Assateague Island watching the wild ponies made her happy. Jean could slice lunchmeat as thin as one would want. Her expertise was manifested at Heritage Dairy Store first in Westville and later in Beckett.
Jean’s late mother, Alberta met Charles and knew he would be a better mate than Jean’s currant date so she set out to be a match maker. She made the deal and they spent the last 38 years enjoying each other. Jean was the mother of the late Richard Paprzycki, step mother of Frank and Angela Ragonese, and grandmother of Ava Paprzycki.
