Jean Veal

Veal, Jean Elizabeth (Leeth),

82, of Louisville, peacefully entered paradise on Thursday, September 4, 2014 after a nine year battle with Alzheimer's disease.

Born in Nashville, TN, to the late John Barnard and Alma (Donnell) Leeth, she lived her entire adult life in Louisville. She met the love of her life, Dr. Samuel J. Veal at Murray State University. Dr. Veal, who was a retired Professor of Dentistry at the University of Louisville, preceded her in death in 2002, one month shy of their 50th Anniversary.

Our amazing mother was a devoted wife, loving mother, sister, aunt and grandmother, bible student and teacher, mentor and friend. She was also an accomplished church pianist. She was a woman of deep faith, bright laughter, and a joyful spirit.

Jean is survived by her five sons, David (Nancy), Bryan (Jan), Alan (Teri), Chris (Sarah) and Eric (Denise); twelve grandchildren, Sarah Disney (Paul), Emily Cantwell (Hunter), Kate, Samantha, Maggie, Carson, Logan, Brandon, Nicolas, Noelle, Nate and Mebrate Veal; great granddaughter, Charlotte Cantwell; and sisters, Katherine Bugenhagen (Tom), Lucille Bentley (Bob) and Alice Adamson (Doug).

Visitation will be 3-8 p.m. Sunday at Owen Funeral Home - Jeffersontown, 9318 Taylorsville Road and Monday after 10 a.m. until a 12 noon service at Servant's Heart Church, 12100 Taylorsville Road. Burial will follow at Louisville Memorial Gardens, West.

Expressions of sympathy may be made to her church, Servant's Heart Church.
