Jean Marie

Fenton

It is with a heavy heart that I announce the death of my wife Jean who passed on to Gods hands November 9, 2026. We met in Dubuque, IA in 1991 and were married August 23, 1993, in Trinidad, CO. From there we led a rollercoaster life moving from Keenesburg, Colorado to Red Oak, Iowa to Bear River, Wyoming to Lodgepole, NE, to our final destination west of Glenrock.

Jean and I both had an admiration for dogs and have had too many to count. She treated our current dogs, Tebow, Payton, and Ammo like kids. She adopted a barn cat named Wilson as well. Even after retiring she still had her hands full.

We both also loved to camp. We loved the Rim Campground on Muddy Mountain and considered the Longhorn RV Park in Dubois our second home. But we really fell in love with the Big Horns either west of Buffalo or west of Dayton. She loved moose and was never disappointed seeing them up there.

With 33 years of marriage behind us we would never have written a “how to” book on making it work. But our love was strong, and we were able to overcome what we were dealt.

Jean loved her kids and grandkids very much. I know she wishes she could have been more involved, but such is life. She spoke with her sister on the phone constantly, and if heaven has a phone, she is probably on it now.

Jean leaves behind her husband, Bob, her children Lindsay and Cory, her siblings Deb, Gary, and Mark, as well as her grandkids Brandon, Amelia, Natalie, Ashlyn, and Hannah.

She is preceded in death by her father Don, and her mother Cornelia.

I would also like to mention Mike Rone and Chris Stanek who she had a love/hate relationship with depending on if we could get a deal done on a camper, and Kris Hool, her brother from another mother.

She will be sorely missed.

Good-bye Cakes.
