Jean Macove

Jean Macove (nee Kostyo), age 90, passed away peacefully on November 9, 2024 with her family by her side. Jean was born November 14, 1933 in Lorain, Ohio and spent her life there while also snow-birding in Nevada each winter. Jean is survived by her three sons Craig (Michelle) Macove, Keith (Lori) Macove and Jim Macove. She is also survived by 4 grandchildren, Jenifer Macove, Kristen Macove, Michael Macove and Madison Macove, a great grandson Jaxson, nephews John Kostyo and Rob Kostyo and many cousins. She was preceded in death by her loving husband George (married 69 years), by her parents Steven and Phyllis Kostyo, her twin brother Jack Kostyo, and niece Kim Pincura. Jean attended St. Joseph Catholic School and graduated with the class of 1951 from Lorain High. She was a dedicated homemaker and mother, and also worked part-time for many years as an office manager and administrator at Air Central Enterprises, a commercial charter service at the Lorain County Airport. Everyone who touched Jean’s life knew her as an outgoing, friendly, kind and caring person. She was fun to be around, always upbeat and you could count on her to be stylish and modern in appearance and attitude. She enjoyed cooking and baking, loved gardening and keeping her yard looking nice, and always kept a warm, inviting home for her family and her friends. She was always there to cheer and support her kids in sports and other activities, and was strongly loyal to all those close to her. Jean was also an active member of St Peters Catholic Church, and enjoyed spending time with her friends and participating regularly in monthly luncheons with Lorain High classmates. While wintering in Las Vegas over the past 30 years, she enjoyed playing the penny and quarter slots and had lady luck on her side many times. Jean was a fan of The Hallmark Channel and always enjoyed stories of hope and love. She will be dearly missed. Visitation will be on Saturday, January 18, 2025, from 12:00 p.m. till 1:30 p.m. at which time there will be a memorial service located at Dovin & Reber Jones Funeral Center, located at 1110 Cooper Foster Park Road, Amherst, OH.
