Norma Jean Whitis was the heart and soul of her family, and there was hardly ever an instance of a life question where she would not be consulted. She and her husband lived a wonderful life together with many adventures and successes. They owned and operated many businesses together after she completed the business of raising her two boys. Jean was a perfect mother, always ready to be a part of her family’s’ life in any way. Always ready with advice or an understanding ear. Her job of being a mother was a very hard one because both of her sons were nowhere close to being well behaved, but she put up with their wild behavior and was the perfect role model and friend always. Jean lived a long and healthy life. She believed in our Lord God, believed in true love, and believed in the importance of family. After a short stay in the hospital, Jean came home and spent the last month of her life under the care and love of family and passed quietly. Jean will be buried at Chaney Cemetery outside of London, KY. Service will be held on Saturday Oct.10th, 11:00 am. This obituary was provided by the family of Norma Jean Whitis.
