Jeanmarie Wallendorf Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 10, 2001.
The Worries Had Ended
"This is the first time in my life that I wasn't worried about her," Christine Barton said of her daughter, Jeanmarie Wallendorf. "Before, I would always worry about who she was with. But since this relationship, I knew she was with someone who could take care of her."

Ms. Wallendorf, 23, whom her family nicknamed Miss Sephora after her love of cosmetics shopping, met her boyfriend when they both worked at a financial company. She left to work in the equity trading department at Keefe Bruyette & Woods because the couple decided it would be better for their relationship, Ms. Barton said. The two were always out, traveling on vacation, going to weddings, hanging out with friends, but Ms. Wallendorf still found time to keep in touch. Once, her mother said, the couple was stuck in the air for hours, a source of great anxiety for Ms. Barton. "She called me from the plane just to tell me she was all right," she said. Ms. Wallendorf was particularly looking forward to the birth of her boyfriend's sister's baby, Ms. Barton said, adding, "I've been waiting for her to give me one, but they wanted to wait, to make sure everything was right."

I did not know Jeanmarie, but I was traumatized that horrific day as all of the nation was. I was 7 months pregnant and was so traumatized by all the family members paying I lost that child. So that is also a sad day for me. I have great empathy for all of the families affected by that tragedy. And the only reason why I'm posting this is because I was curious as I sit behind a Ford Explorer in Port St Lucie I see the memory of Jean Marie on the back of a car so I looked her up and felt I needed to comment my condolences to her loved ones family and friends.

Christine Barton

September 12, 2023

The news came Suddenly. Unexpectedly. Traumatically Without the chance for goodbyes. Without the hope of a tomorrow that was anticipated to come. it’s devastating. Ripping a hole in the heart of my world and the world of all who knew and loved her.

Over the years I realized so many things, and I may now live in my paranoid world but these Things I already knew but always lose sight of. Things like, nothing is ever guaranteed. Things like, you never know when it will be your last text . . . your last hug . . . your last conversation your last time seeing a loved one. . . your last everything with a person who is so deeply connected to your heart and soul... that you haven’t gotten through a day without their smile or their voice, for years that are counted by decades.

Sometimes it is hard to know if I am more sad or angry Because now the only things I can imagine are the life I used to imagine I would have with you in it. I started imagining that life from the moment you came to be. I imagined my life with you in it, alongside your brothers and sister and your nephews. I imagined life with you. What you would look like now, how many Children you would have and their names, how many times you would have to step in to protect your siblings from someone or something. I imagine you very independent as always and not afraid to speak your mind.
So many things to imagine, but that is all I can do now. Is Imagine.

I just can’t believe you aren’t here with us I can’t believe I will never feel your hugs again. I can’t believe this happened to us.
Jeanmarie .I send my love To Where You Are.

I can’t believe it’s been 20 years. I’ve only met you through your mother after the tragedy of your death. I think of you and your mother often. Picture your lives together had you not been taken. I never forget you or your amazing mother. Christine, I make sure to always remind people of Jamie’s light and in some small way make sure she is never forgotten. If there was one wish it would be that it should not have been a tragedy that introduced me to you and Jamie.

Dear Jaime,

I am currently sitting with my best friend Tricia and we are painting her fridge green... yes I know, we're nuts. Anyways, you cross my mind while we are talking and I started to pull up your photos. we began talking about how beautiful you are and how beautiful your energy is... you can literally Feel it from your photos. Our family misses you to pieces. You cross my mind quite frequently as I become older. I wonder how of lives would be if you were still with us. We miss you dearly. I know you are watching over your mom, and your brothers and sisters. I love you.
❤ Kristine

The last time I believe I made an Entry was in 2002 and every year during the reading of the names I always listen for the names of FDNY Michael Keifer, FDNY Robert Wallace and Jeanmarie Wallendorf. I didn't know Jeanmarie, however when I went to write an entry for Robert Wallace FDNY, I was immediately drawn to Jeanmarie's picture and have thought about her and her family often. Especially her little brother. I am thinking of Jeanmarie's family. My love is with all. RIP SWEET ANGEL <3

In Memory of my Baby girl
Jeanmarie Wallendorf August 7th 1978 -September 11th 2001

The tragedy of 911 may have taken you from this earth but Never from my heart

I find an old photograph
and see your bright and beautiful smile.
As I feel your presence anew,
I am filled with warmth
and my heart remembers love.
I read an old card
from many years ago

The words written then
still caress my spirit
and bring me peace.

I remember who you used to be
the laughter we shared
and wonder what you have become.
Where are you now,
Where did you go,
When the body is left behind
and the spirit is released to fly?

Perhaps you are the morning bird
singing joyfully at sunrise,
or the dragonfly that dances
so carelessly on the breeze
or the rainbow of colors
that brightens a stormy sky
or the fingers of afternoon mist
delicately reaching over the mountains
or the final few rays of the setting sun
lighting up the skies
edging the clouds with a magical glow.
no matter what form you may have become
I name each one after you.

I miss you Jaime
but I feel your presence,
In whatever form you choose to take,
however you now choose to be.

Your spirit has become for me
a guardian angel on high
guiding, advising, and watching over our family.
it may have been 11 years you were taken away
but it does not change a thing because
Each day that goes by I miss and love you the same,
the only thing that keeps me alive is knowing that
You are with me and then... I am not afraid.

Love,Mom
