Helen Jean Johnson, 85, of Dover, died Wednesday, May 18, 2022 in her residence, surrounded by her family, following a brief illness.

When she wasn’t working, Jean devoted her life to supporting her husband and extended family’s interests. She also had a love for country music, watching all Cleveland sports teams, and NASCAR. John and Jean enjoyed traveling all over the country attending races and vacationing in the Smoky Mountains and Myrtle Beach.
Jean leaves behind her special family including several nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews. Completing the family are her two sisters, Rosalie (Larry) Bolden and Carol (Larry) Valentine; and sister-in-law, Chris Beamer.
In addition to her parents and husband, Jean was preceded in death by her brothers, Robert (Linda) Beamer, Richard (Betty) Beamer and Kenneth Beamer.
Father Jimmy Hatfield will celebrate a Mass of Christian Burial on Tuesday beginning at 11 a.m. in St. Joseph Catholic Church in Dover. Burial will follow in Calvary Cemetery at New Philadelphia.

Dear Rosalie, Carol and Chris I am saddened to hear of Jean's death. John and Jean were always the model for me of the Most Beloved Aunt and Uncle. I was always impressed seeing Jean and John at all of their nieces and nephew's school, parish and sporting events. They were always the most loving and accepting of people. I was blessed to have known them and the family. Be assured of my thoughts and prayers during this sad time. With much love,
Our sympathy to all the Beamer family! She was a great lady who will be missed by so many! Cathy & Jim Civiello
I was so saddened to hear of Jeanne's passing. Becky sent me the news. I'll remember her in my prayers.
Our sincere condolences to Rosalie, Carol, Chris, and their families. Jeanie was a genuinely nice person.
I worked with Jean at FZR for a few years before her retirement. She was a great lady. Your family has my deepest sympathy.
Jean (and Emma and Gracie) were such a special part of our lives. She and her girls brought such joy to the neighborhood! My daughter befriended Jean over their shared love of dogs, and Jean was a wonderful encouragement when she was adjusting to her diabetes diagnosis. Her sweet presence is already dearly missed.
My condolences to Carol and the family who are hurt by this loss of a loved one. Betty Keener
