My condolences to the Jacobs family. I met this lovely lady in 1957, when I visited the Ringling truck show in Texas. She and Lou were cordial and inviting to my admiration of them both. Lou signed items in my photo collection of him, which are lasting treasures. May Ms. Jacobs Rest In Peace.

Jean would come up every summer and spend a couple weeks with Jorge and Louann. I would usually see her taking a walk every morning. She was always friendly. I admit to not trying to get too close as there were a lot of people doing, OMG, you're Lou Jacob's wife, can I be your friend. So I just let her have her peace and quiet and just gave her a friendly hello when I saw her.
