I will always remember Aunt Jeannie for her warmth, her great smile, and awesome sense of humor. Though she will be greatly missed by her loved ones, we are all better people because of her.

Aunt Jeanie had the greatest laugh. And she made you want to laugh with her. She will truly be missed.

Special sister-in-law with whom we shared many laughs over the years. Lots of fun times when our kids were little and a lifetime of memories. Jeannie was always an important part of the Pugh family.

I am so sorry for your loss. I didn't know Jeannie, but in knowing her daughter Shannon, it is clear that she left a legacy of love, kindness and great devotion to family. God bless you.

Not only my sister but my best friend. We did so much together and I am sad she is no longer with us but I am so grateful that she is now in the arms of Jesus and be comforting with no more pain and no more tears. She will forever be in my heart and whenever I make a card I will be remembering her and every scrapbook page I make she will be remembered. I will miss our phone calls and visits. We were always laughing.

I am so heartbroken... and sad for you and your family. She was such a special woman... and I love hearing her laugh in my memories of her. It feels like yesterday when we were all small cousins, playing with the cap guns grandma got us... your mom, mine, aunt Janet and grandma Pugh all working on dinner. We are pounding the cap rolls on the sidewalk with rocks. Aunt Jeannie's laugh was distinct among the rest. We were all happy and carefree. These were the best of times, one I treasure greatly. We were fortunate to all have lived close enough that we were able to get together as often as we did... it was like growing up in a huge family. Good times... Awesome Memories. Incredible loss. My heart is with you all. Love you! -jodi
