Jean Adele Gelvin Thomas, June 4 1954-June 30, 2024 

Jean Adele Thomas, a devoted wife and mother, was born in Wray, Colorado on June 4, 1954. Jean, the youngest of four siblings, grew up in rural Colorado. Her childhood surroundings shaped her love of nature and the outdoors. Jean gave special meaning to the phrase, ’never leave a stone unturned’ as she collected stones from wherever she traveled. 

Jean and Bill began their adventures together in the summer of 1974 in Yellowstone National Park. They married, studied at the University of Montana in Missoula, returned to work in Yellowstone, then Estes Park, Fort Collins, Fairfax VA, and Windsor, Colorado. 

Jean graduated from the University of Montana with a Masters Degree in Geology with a specialization in Hydrology. Jean worked for the U.S. Forest Service with an emphasis on water rights management beginning in 1984 until her retirement in 2016. Jean is survived by her husband, William, her son David (Noppy), her sister Judy (Kenny), brothers Ed (Nancy) and Les (Jeanne) and many nieces, nephews, and in-laws. 

Services for Jean will be held Wednesday, July 3 at 11 a.m. at Mark's Funeral Service, located at 9293Eastman Park Drive, Windsor CO 80550.
