Jean spent her first few years in Hooper and her family moved to Otsego early in her life. She was only ten when her father died unexpectedly, leaving her mother to raise and support their family alone. Her mother soon went to work outside the home to provide for the family, and Jean, being one of the oldest, had to help care for her younger siblings. Although she had much responsibility at home, Jean thoroughly enjoyed school and was an excellent student. She went on to graduate 10^th in her class at Otsego High School in 1953.

While still in high school, Jean met a young man named Charles "Chuck" Holly, at a dance in Alamo; and they were quite taken with each other. Over the next few years, their love for each other blossomed and they were married on February 24, 1953, while Jean was still in school. At the time, Chuck was serving his country in the military, and had come home on leave to marry his sweetheart. Unfortunately, shortly thereafter, he was sent overseas to serve in Korea for the next fifteen months.

Upon his discharge, the couple settled into married life together in the Plainwell, Otsego area. To help make ends meet, Jean went to work at the collection bureau in Kalamazoo for a while, before taking a job at the cheese company in Otsego. In 1964, Chuck and Jean were overjoyed with the birth of their son, Chuck, who brought great joy into their lives. Jean remembered how her mother was always gone so much working after her father died and she did not want that for her son, so she left her job to devote herself to the role of a mother.

Dear Kate,

How have you been? It has been a long time since I wrote a letter. I was caught up with the holidays and Mama's family came over, so was not able to write any. Hope you have become accustomed to the hostel food there.

When Mama and her family came over, we all went to the Jim Corbett National Park. It was spread on a huge area with huge deciduous and mango trees. There were more than 100 species of trees, with so many varieties of birds, reptiles, and other mammals. The Tigers were the special tourist attractions there.

We also went on an early morning safari and we were able to spot a sambar deer and an elephant. There were the Kalagarh dam and the Corbett falls which were awesome. I will show you all the pictures when you come over for the next holidays.

Also, let's plan to visit there together again when you come here.

Study well, eat well, and sleep well.

Take care.

Love,

Jack
