Jean Datoli, 70, of Stafford Springs, formerly of Plainville, passed away on Tuesday, July 6, 2010, at Evergreen Health Care Center in Stafford Springs.

Jean was born on March 9, 1940, the only daughter of the late Louis and Carol (D'Angelo) Datoli. Raised in Plainville, she was a lifelong resident, and graduate of Plainville High School. Jean was employed in the administration department for Wire Mold in New Britain for over 20 years before her retirement. She has resided in Stafford Springs for the past 15 years, where the staff and residents of Evergreen became her second family. She spent much of her time volunteering for the nearby hospital, Johnson Memorial, where she leaves many friends and acquaintances. Jean was a woman of great strength and courage, whose kindheartedness and warm smile will forever remain with those who were blessed to have known her.

She leaves her son, Darryl LeCours, and his daughters, Aleceia and Madisen, all of Lebanon; and her many friends at Evergreen Health Care Center, who gave her the compassionate care and quality of life that Jean so well deserved and appreciated.

Family and friends may gather on Thursday from 5 to 7 p.m. at Bailey Funeral Home, 48 Broad St., Plainville.

Services will be held at the conclusion of the visitation at 7 p.m. at the funeral home.

Jean may be remembered with contributions to the Connecticut Breast Cancer Coalition, P.O. Box 1721, Litchfield, CT 06759.
