Jean Ann Heidbrink was born on September 24, 1932, in Salix, Iowa, the daughter of William Henry and Louise Delina (Copenhaver) Lamoureux. She attended school in Salix where she graduated from high school.

Jean met Kenneth Dale Heidbrink at a dance in Sioux City and it was love at first sight. They were married on February 12, 1955, in Salix. Jean and Kenny made their home in Le Mars where they raised their family. Kenny passed away on September 12, 2012.

Jean’s life revolved around her family. Not only did she live for her children and grandchildren, she treasured her nieces and nephews as well. Whenever a baby was present, you could always find them in Jean’s arms. She was a great cook and it brought her joy to bring people together over a meal. She loved the time spent at Yankton with her family and friends and winter trips to Sanibel Island with Kenny.

Jean was a member of All Saints Catholic Parish. She taught CCD for 18 years and was in charge of decorating the church for several years after that. She belonged to many groups and clubs and cherished all the friendships she had. Her hobbies included shopping, playing cards, sewing and bowling when she was younger.
