Jeannie and I became good friends while working at Steffen’s Dairy. She was always so much fun and so full of energy. She introduced me to her wonderful family and we stayed in touch for many, many years. She was the kindest most caring person I have ever known. I will miss her wonderful smile and fun personality. I was so lucky to have such a wonderful friend. Annette, Joan and Bob, my prayers are with all of you. You were truly blessed to have such a wonderful mom. Terri Isham
The first year I taught school I had Jeanie’s daughter Annette in my classroom. Jeanie was a wonderful school mom. Always available to help me when needed.

Joan and family, I was greatly saddened to here that Jeanie had passed. When she came into the office, she always brightened our day. I guess needed someone to brighten up heaven. Jeanie will be missed, my prayers are with you and your family. Doc Jed
I met Jeanie at an Altar Society meeting 8 years ago. She was such a pleasant person with a beautiful flair. May she rest in peace.
My husband and I first met Jeanie when we started praying to her large Blessed Virgin Mary statute in her back yard. She was so full of life and happiness AND ALWAYS ON THE MOVE!! We will miss her and may her families’ guardian angels rest their wings beside their doors. (Her and Joe are reunited once again.) May God bless Jeanie’s family and hold them in the palm of His hand. Peace and Love, Dan and Linden Gentry.
Joan, Jim, Annette and families: Just found out today of your loss of “Moon” and want to just say may the Prince of Peace bless/comfort you all in this time of grief. From my little interaction, I was always impressed with her kindness and enthusiasm. I will miss my “Wisteria Buddy” Jeff and Jenn Elliott
