    Notes:

    Died:
    I have taken liberties with placement of the children and grandchildren. Checking True's obit, I believe that their only child was June. Jessie's obit says she was survived by SONS Noel Vry and Larry Vry and a granddaughter Pam Zugg. I believe that is supposed to read two grandsons. Jessie did not marry a man named Vry, but daughter, June was married to Herman Vry according to True's obit.

    Jessie married True O. Fuller on 9 Jul 1912 in Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa. True was born on 5 May 1889 in Cambridge, Story County, Iowa; died in Apr 1971 in Marshalltown, Marshall County, Iowa. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

She worked at Fisher Controls, was the Grundy County Zoning Administrator and Sanitarian for 25 years and held several other jobs throughout her career before retirement.

She looked forward to Friday coffee with “the girls.” The most precious gifts in her life were her daughters and grandchildren. She loved attending their activities, sharing her life with them and she could always make them laugh and leave them with a smile. Not only with her own grandchildren, she was a grandma to every child she met.
