Jeanette (Mrs. Marvin) Stofft has passed away. I know this news will be of interest to my many friends in the pottery community. Jeanette and Marvin were founding members of the Pottery Lovers event in Zanesville, Ohio in the 1970s, and shared their love of pottery with one and all. She and her husband also were Show Managers of the pottery show for all those years, and one thing Jeanette insisted on were pretty flowers in each and every booth. Sending condolences to her son, John, and all her family.
