I'm so incredibly sorry to the family of Jeanne. She worked at CPC with my mom and also helped me plan a surprise birthday party for her. We spent some good times together, not enough & eventually lost touch. My thoughts & prayers are truly with her family. She was an awesome lady & I still remember her talking so proudly about her girls when she lived near 12th & Summit. Rest in peace old friend!

Jeanne will be greatly missed by all of her friends at Greenway apts. She was a dear friend to me and I will miss her wonderful smile and wise words. She always gave me such great advise when I was dealing with the loss of my son and mother about life and death. She was just the most special person one Could ever hope to have in ones life.
