Her crowning achievement was a reproduction of the twelve Chagall windows, five in needlepoint and sev- en in individual colored beads that shimmer like glass. Size 18 X 23 inches, all are framed in decorative wood. A fast, light-footed swing dancer, she shared many prizes won in dance contests on cruises and at Penns Landing. In Atlantic City, at the Sands Casino lounge, Jean and her husband won dance contests judged by the Geater, Jerry Blavat, and by the professional dancer who had given actor John Travolta dance lessons for two movies. On the night before the Sands Casino closed, Jean and her husband were guests at a private party where she danced with the CEO and her husband danced with the CEO's wife.
