We would also like to thank her "family" at the NYS Education Department.

I realize that it's almost been a year since Jeanne passed away, however I didn't know and just found out tonight. I feel that I need to let Stacy know that she and Jeanne are both in my prayers. Jeanne was such an amazing woman and I will miss her and all thoughts are with Stacy, my close friend.

Jeanne has held a very special place in my heart and I will miss her dearly. She has shared her friendship and Christian faith with me over many years. Her courage and faith during the past five years has been incredible. I know she is at peace without pain in Heaven with her Savior Jesus. I pray that God will comfort you all and that your wonderful memories of such a very special lady will help to ease the pain.
