She loved meeting and helping people.

Among Idajean’s hobbies she enjoyed reading and travelling with her children. One of her favorite trips was with her daughter Rebecca to Dingle, Ireland. Idajean will always be remembered for her great sense of humor. Her family was her pride and joy and she loved the time she spent with them. She will be missed by all who knew her.
