Jean Edmunds was born and raised in West Virginia which explains her loyalty in football to the Pittsburg Steelers and the West Virginia Mountaineers. She attended school in West Virginia and was employed for 10 years by The C&P Telephone Company of W.V. She and Dave met while both were employed at C&P and they were married in 1966. They will celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary this December. Jean and Dave have two sons - Matthew and David, Jr. along with two precious grandchildren in Richmond, Va. It was Jean's desire to be closer to the children and grandchildren that brought her from Pinehurst, N.C. to the Charlottesville area in May of 2003. Jean has been active in a leadership role for many years in Community Bible Study and has enjoyed her participation in numerous other bible studies over the years. Her other interest/hobbies revolve around babysitting for her grandchildren, shopping, traveling and NFL Football when her favorite teams are playing! The Edmunds have lived in the Glenmore area for the past 2 1/2 years. Both enjoy the relatively easy 50 minute drive to the west side of Richmond whenever their 'grandparent duties' beckon. Prior to coming to Charlottesville in 2003, Jean was also active in the Republican Women's Club of Moor County, North Carolina. Jean joined ACRWL soon after her arrival here and she has been an invaluable member ever since, providing us on numerous occasions with meaningful and deeply moving blessings at our luncheon meetings and also hosting meetings in her lovely home. As Chairman of the Legislative Committee, Jean is a member of our Board of Directors and we are grateful for her faithful participation and wise input.
