Jean Lavon Storey Treat was born September 4, 1928, in Mountain View, Arkansas, to Luther ''Doc'' Storey and Mattie Whitfield Storey. She married Afton Treat on December 24, 1949, in Mountain View, Arkansas. Afton said, ''I would marry that girl even if I didn't know her name.'' After marriage, the Treats moved to Flint, Michigan where their daughter, Marcina, was born. After a move to Wichita, Kansas, a second daughter, Phyllis, was born. The family moved back to Stone County in 1955. Before the family returned to Stone County, Jean accepted Christ as her personal Lord and Savior while they lived in Wichita. She tended the house and the orchards, but her loves were her flowers and garden.

You are in our prayers
RIP Aunt Jean!
In our prayers so sorry for your loss..
Condolence: Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of your loved one. This is one of the most difficult things we must face in this life. May it comfort you to know that others are deeply touched by your loss. But the bible assures us at Psalms 34:18 that God is near to those broken in heart and those crushed in spirit he saves. He also promises that we will be able to see our loved ones again. Jesus own words found at John 5:28,29 tells us there will be a resurrection. What a wonderful hope! He also promises that soon on the earth there will be no more pain, suffering and especially death. Revelation 21:3-5 We anxiously await the day when we will no longer lose those we love. May these bible thoughts bring you comfort at this most difficult time
May you rest in pease Aunt Jean. I will miss you .
