Jean Biltz's Obituary
Jean Biltz passed away on Friday, April 9th 2021 at her home in Dublin California. Jean was born in Warsaw, Indiana on July 23, 1938. She is survived by her adoring husband of 63 years, William Daniel "Bill" Biltz, Jr. They were married on February 8, 1958 at Palestine Methodist Church in Palestine, Indiana.
Jean retired in 2000 after nearly 20 years as a beloved bus driver for the San Ramon Valley Unified School District. In retirement she delved into genealogy. Nothing brought her so much joy as filling in the leaves of her family tree and making meaningful connections with relatives on Facebook. Jean cherished her friends and family, believed in the power of laughter, baked the best birthday cakes, and took pride in making her house a home.
Jean was preceded in death by her parents Hazel and Hershel Kurtz and her step-grandson Ben Harris.
Jean will be lovingly remembered by her sons Bill (Annette) and Dan (Becky), by her daughters Melody (Ed) Evenson and Michele (Mike) Phippen, by her grandchildren Kristal, Candice, Aric, Kayleigh and Connor, and by her step-grandson Doug Harris.
A graveside gathering in memory of Jean was held on Tuesday, April 20th, 2021 at 11:30 a.m. at the Chapel of the Chimes, 32992 Mission Blvd, Hayward, CA 94544.
