Jean and Santa
Born in 1927, Norma Jean Gould
Lemon, known as “Jeannie” or “Jean,”
grew up in Moundsville, WV, an area
known for its coal, Fostoria glass and
an ancient Indian burial mound. But,
to Jean, Moundsville was just home.
She has wonderful memories of
growing up as the baby sister to her
brother Jack and sister Dorothy. She
said that every Friday evening, the
entire town would gather at the city
park to sing and watch movies under
the stars. Seemingly like a scene from a
classic 1940's movie, Jean met the love
of her life, Jack Lemon, at a bowling
alley the night before he shipped out
to join the Navy during WWII.The first
moment he saw Jean, he declared to
a friend, “That’s the girl I’m going to
marry!” During Jack’stime in the
Pacific Theater, he wrote beautiful
love letters home to his “ Jeannie.” She
bundled them with blue silk ribbon.
They married in 1947 and
had three daughters, Andrea, Susan
and Holly. Early in their marriage, Jean
and Jack were involved in some
interesting business ventures. At
Buckeye Lake Amusement Park near
Columbus, Ohio they ran a ‘guess your
age and weight’ booth and a soft
custard stand; then opened Jack ‘N
Jean’s 24-hour restaurant.. They
moved the family to Louisville in 1964,
where Jack worked as an insurance
agent and Jean later worked at
Stewart’s Department Store and Blue
Cross Blue Shield. Her love of sewing

eye, a smile on her face.
