Jeanne was a delightful lady. We worked together for many years at Winter Street GE. She was a lovely woman.

Aunt Jeanne always had a smile for everybody and was loved by all. I always enjoyed the visits when the whole family would come to the house. Take care. Jeff and Becky. Love to you. Jamie

Jeannie was such a joy to see at Village Oaks, a very sweet lady. My mother is also in Trade Winds and I saw Jeanne often. Even on a bad day I could get a smile out of her. I would say to her "There's my Jeanne with the light brown hair" and she would always comment with the sweetest smile "yep, that's me". She was loved by all. I am sorry for your loss, we will all miss her.
