  12. John Haller and wife Sally DeStefano condolence:

    My sister, Jean, was always an important person in my life. She helped raise me when I was a young child. Jean was outwardly demure but internally very strong and carried many challenges in her heart. But she rarely complained. I will miss Jean as I continue on with life, holding strong to the memory of her loving and caring nature that only a big sister can give a little brother. Brother John

    Jean lived with John and me in Reno, NV for several years. She helped John in his leather cleaning and restoration business. What an artist with a needle! I will miss her quiet kindness so much, but she is now sewing with the angels, keeping their robes in good repair…a most deserved rest after such a valiant journey through a life that positively impacted many. Sister-in-Law Sally

    God bless you all.
    Deepest condolence.
