MOORE, ELMA JEAN (LAUMBACH) My little sister has gone to sleep in Jesus on Feb. 9, 2013 at home in Romoland, CA. Now she awaits the sound of the trumpet when the dead in Christ will rise at Jesus' second coming. God's children will come out of their dusty graves to meet Jesus in the air: 1Thes. 4:13-18. Jean was born second child to Daniel and Juanita Laumbach on Feb. 16, 1942. She and her sister Nancy were later joined by a brother, Daniel Chester Jr. Jean graduated from Los Lunas High School, Class of 1960. She studied in Denver, CO to be a doctor's asst./xray tech/lab tech. She worked for Dr. Cohenhour. Then moved to CA to work in a clinic for Drs. Hernandez and Zarate. She met her first husband Michael there, owner of Hakanson Construction Co. They married and before the birth of their first child, she quit to become a stay at home mom. She was an active member of The Seventh Day Adventist Reform Movement. She is survived by her loving and devoted husband of 27 years, Allen, retired College Professor; her children and their spouses: Navy Chaplain Commander John Michael Hakanson and wife Janine, a teacher holding a master's degree in education; Eric Anthony Hakanson, owner of Hakanson Construction Enterprises and his wife Aileen, an Endodontist; Shirley Noelle Thomas BA in business with an emphasis in Marketing and husband Terrill, BFA with emphasis in illustration. Shirley was God's Christmas gift to Michael and Jean. Christopher Byron Hakanson, BA and RN in nursing and wife Kylie who home schools their five children; grandchildren: Mark, Sarah, Anusha, Nayana, Eric, Byron, Isabella, Alisha and Shelly; her brother Chester aka Chet; sister Nancy and Mary Henson, whom Nancy and Jean adopted as their sister many years ago; nieces, nephews, cousins; Uncle Joe and Aunt Merlinda Perea. A big thank you to Chet's daughter, Cathi, who gave her time and energy to stay with Jean's children, who helped Allen take care of her. She suffered with bone cancer as did her mom in 1977-78.
