Sad to see that another classmate has passed away. I did not know Jean personally, I did recognize her picture though and as I read her obituary it was clear that Jean was a very accomplished person. Her family spoke of the wonderful legacy she left for them. May she rest in peace.

I am sorry to hear about Jean DeVel Frazier. Although I did not know her well, we were in home room for three years, I am always saddened by the loss of any classmate. Bless her and her family.
