Born June 22, 1934 in Uniontown, PA, she was the daughter of the late James and Meriam (Shanaberger) Milson.

Jean was a majorette at Penn State University and graduated with a degree in child psychology.

Jean was active in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and, along with her husband, mentored many young students through the Pathways Worldwide program.

Jean was a loving wife and homemaker who had a special affinity for all animals. She loved dogs, especially St. Bernards, and often did wildlife and horse rescue. She was also a private pilot and loved flying. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

In addition to her parents, Jean was predeceased by her son, Stephen Haky, and her brother Walter Milson.

Left to cherish her memory are her loving husband of 49 years, Lael Wells, her daughters; Stephanie Georgiana (Lawrence), Amy Calkins (Sonny), and Jenny Wells, as well as many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and her beloved dog Becky.
