To my cousins, Janice,Julianne and Jefferey, I send my sincere condolences in the loss of Jeanne Marie on December 23rd.
Though I have not seen her in many years, I will always remember her as a beautiful, interesting, flamboyant older cousin, who had a wonderful talent for telling the most exciting tales of her life experiences, as well describing the interesting places she had traveled to.
I am sure the positive energy that she brought to every encounter will be missed by all her family and friends.
My husband Gary joins me in these sentiments.
