JEAN PLATT NWACHUKWU
?—1996
Jean Platt Nwachukwu became a Bahá’í in Connecticut in the United States in 1972. She then pioneered to Nigeria in 1975, where she lived for twelve years. She was a member of the National Spiritual Assembly for many of those years. During that time she met and married Adiele, a native of Enugu, Nigeria. Jean and her family settled in Ellington, Connecticut, in 1987. In that community Jean served as a member of the Local Spiritual Assembly, as a member of the District Teaching Committee, and on the New World Bahá’í School Committee. During her last bout with cancer, many were impressed with her equanimity and unshakable faith in God. Jean Nwachukwu passed away on September 13, 1996, in Ellington.
