Such a kind and gentle soul. I first met Jean and Jimmie Neal when I was a 14 year old high school sophomore. Jimmie Neal was my high school debate coach and Jean was his rock. They were like a second family to me both in high school and in college as I followed the Rogers to the University of Arkansas. I am very thankful for their support over the years. They will never know how much they have impacted my life. My thoughts and prayers go out to Jimmie Neal and the entire Rogers family. May you all find comfort and peace in your memories and knowledge of the significant impact Jean had on so many others.
What a beautiful tribute! Jean was an incredible person. I valued her friendship and the conversations we had. She was a good listener, thoughtful and helpful. I am a better person for listening to some of the advice she gave me. Jimmie, your wife was the best! What a lost to you and your family and to her many friends. She will be missed.

I love you, dear friend, and I thank you for your life-changing advice, warm heart, great conversation, gentle and generous spirit, and abundant big smiles. You always lit up every room, and I know when you arrived in Heaven you already had your wings. Thank you for your motherly love to my husband and then to me for so many decades, for afternoon visits, gentle kindness, quick mind and wit, and lively conversation. You are blessed, and it rubbed off on everyone, whether known or unknown to you. You will remain to so many of us a positivity influence, love guide, spiritual up-lifter, gracious giver, and demonstrator of how to accentuate the positive. You will forever be my happiness hero. “Death is not the ending of anything. I believe all of us are only energy that becomes matter. When the matter goes away, the energy still exists. You can’t destroy it. It never dies. It manifests itself somewhere else.”— Willie Nelson
