JONESBOROUGH - Jean Peters Rash, age 81, Jonesborough, left this temporary home to be with her Heavenly Father on Tuesday, May 23, 2023, at Johnson City Medical Center.
Jean was a native of Carter County. She graduated from Happy Valley High School and Tri Cities Beauty School. Following her graduation, she began working at Kmart and retired as a Pharmacy Technician after 40 years of service.
