JEAN E. JUSTUS
PLYMOUTH, Mich. - Jean E. Justus, age 67, passed away Sept. 29, 2005, at her home in Plymouth, Mich. Her loving family was by her side. She was born Aug. 23, 1938, in St. Albans, the daughter of Maurice P. and Claire K. (O’Brien) Bushey.

Jean received a nursing degree from the Jeanne Mance School of Nursing in Burlington. Jean was well known by all as a very compassionate person with a love of life and helping others. She touched the lives of everyone who knew her and enriched the lives of her many friends and family. During her career as a registered nurse she was consistently recognized for her outstanding patient care. Her career included positions with Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, and Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in New York, where she was assigned to care for numerous VIP patients, including King Faisal of Saudi Arabia and General Douglas MacArthur.

During the Vietnam War, she volunteered to serve as a nurse in the U.S. Air Force as a First Lieutenant, caring for wounded members of all of the branches of U.S. military.

On June 27, 1970, she married Carlyle E. Justus, with whom she had served in the Air Force. She was a loving wife and mother and they were together for 35 years. During his career as an international banker they traveled throughout the United States and numerous foreign countries. Her favorite locations were the Green Mountains of her beloved Vermont, and the beautiful country of Bermuda.

Jean is survived by her husband and their two children, Lisa and her husband, Kurt, David and his wife, Daya; and two much adored grandchildren, Jack and David. She is also survived by her mother, Claire Bushey; her brother, Robert Bushey and his wife, Shirley, of St. Albans; a sister, Priscilla Takayama and her husband, Wesley, of Nashua, N.H.; her aunt and Godmother, Yvonne (Bushey) Cross; her aunt, Colleen (O’Brien) Jaiber and Elanor O’Brien of St. Albans; her aunt, Edwilda O’Brien of Albuquerque, New Mexico; as well as many cousins, nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her father, Maurice Bushey, in 1981; her brother, Richard Bushey; and a sister, Maureen Healy, both in 1999.

Upon the birth of her children she became a full-time mother and was devoted to them. She was a role model, friend and advocate for them throughout her life. She participated in their education by developing art and other learning programs for the Catholic schools they attended.

Throughout her life, Jean continuously sought personal and spiritual growth. She was invited to become one of the first Covenant Members of the Wheaton Franciscan Sisters, Daughters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, one of a limited number of married women with a family to be so honored as a non-vowed member to share in the life of the religious community. The community is guided by the healing mission of St. Francis in creating nursing and other caring communities.

Her love of life, laughter and caring spirit will live on in the memories of all who knew her. The following quote in a letter from one of her dear friends, near the end of Jean’s life, captures her essence: “Please, tell Jean how much I love her. I think of her very, very often and remember all the wonderful times we had together. I’ll never forget her beautiful eyes - so full of wonder and so wise. Never in my life have I had a friend with such a beautiful mind and heart.” Jean will be deeply missed by her family and friends and their memories of her will be cherished.

A memorial mass was held for her on Oct. 1 at Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Church in Plymouth, Mich., where she and her husband have been members.

A second memorial mass will be held for Jean at 11 a.m. on Oct. 22 at Holy Angels Catholic Church in St. Albans, Vt., the church of her family for generations. Her ashes will be interred at the Justus family lot at Holy Cross Cemetery in St. Albans. That will include a military honor guard in recognition of her service in the U.S. Air Force.

At 1 p.m., Jean’s extended family and friends are invited to join her family for a luncheon, graciously hosted by the members of the St. Mary’s Church, at their Parish Center in St. Albans to celebrate their lives and hers.

Memorial contributions may be made to St. Joseph Mercy Hospice, 806 Airport Boulevard, Ann Arbor, Mich. 48108-3551.
