    We have and are going to miss you, Jean. You were a very special lady to so many, especially to your family and grandchildren.

    Jean tried to teach me how to crimp a pie shell when we’d make pies at church. I still can’t do it right but boy was she good at making pies (and quilts)! She was always so helpful and fun to talk to. Sorry for your loss Krumm family.

    My deepest sympathies to the Krumm family. I knew Jean as a good soul with a wonderful sense of humor who welcomed us to New Richmond when we first moved here in 2015. She taught me a lot about quilting and became my good buddy in the First Lutheran church choir. I am truly blessed to have known Jean. Rest in peace dear friend.
