Jean Pitchford

Jean (Konieczny) Pitchford

Jean Pitchford, 89, passed away peacefully at her home outside of Austin, Texas, on Jan. 28, 2017, after a short battle with cancer. She was surrounded by family and friends and remained positive and grateful through the day of her passing.

Jean spent her childhood in Pennsylvania with many family members still residing in Jerome, Pa., and the surrounding area. She married Don Pitchford and raised a family of three boys in Randolph, N.Y. Once her boys were raised, she entered the workforce and held positions at the Cattaraugus County courthouse and with the U.S. Postal Service.

Don and Jean retired and moved to central Florida, where they enjoyed two decades of relaxation, sunshine and travelling. They moved to the hill country outside of Austin, Texas, in 2015 to be closer to family.

Jean is survived by her sister, Kathleen; sister- in-law, Jeanne; her brother, Bob and his wife, Betty (Betty was one of Jean’s most treasured friends and confidant). In addition, she is survived by her loyal husband, Don Pitchford, Leander, Texas; and their sons and their families: Dan, Exton, Pa., George, Randolph, N.Y., and Donnie, Leander, Texas.

A memorial Mass celebrating Jean’s life was held at St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church in Cedar Park, Texas. You can view the obituary, pictures, sign the guest book and leave any comments and condolences at: http://wcfish. tributes.com/obituary/ show/Jean-Konieczny- Pitchford-104469888.
