Jean Ann McFadden

Jean Ann McFadden, age 72, passed away on November 18, 2021 in Wilmington, Delaware.

Jean was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania and she graduated from Central Catholic School. Thereafter, she attended nursing school at Allentown Hospital School of Nursing where she received her Diploma in Nursing. Jean decided to seek additional education and she chose to attend Widener University.
Jean enjoyed the challenges inherent in her nursing career and her greatest contribution was compassion for others.

May the road rise to meet you,

May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.

    Dear Dan, Ed and sister, I have know Jean for almost 50 yrs. We worked together and had our children around the same time. She was a dear, special soul. The care she gave her patients was given with gentleness, kindness and professionalism. A gentle angel has her wings! Peggy Alderson

    Jean dated and married my older brother. I was a lost teen and she treated me with kindness, respect, and she was like an older sister. Later in life we became close friends, took family vacations together, and when I brought my new wife back from Colombia, Jean went out of her way to befriend Leonor and welcome her to the family. So I’ve adored her for 50 years and my wife for almost 40. We were so happy to visit her in recent years. Hard to process. I Miss you big sister
