Obituary of Jean Mehmel
Jean Marie Mehmel, 75, passed away peacefully on Monday, March 20, 2017, at Fellowship Village in Basking Ridge, New Jersey. She was born on October 27, 1941 in the Bronx, New York to John and Elizabeth Cawley and graduated from Mother Cabrini High School. Jean was a lifelong Bronx resident (Fordham and Riverdale sections) until her well-deserved retirement after 40 plus years as a bookkeeper. Her retirement to Bradenton, Florida brought her peace and tranquility, especially as she continued her battle with cancer. Her interests included family, reading, and watching classic movies (and the occasional trip to a nearby casino!). Jean was most proud of her loving family and was a deeply faithful Catholic. She is survived by her son Bob and his wife Barbara residing in Bernardsville, New Jersey, and her grandchildren Clarke, Morgan and Madison.
