I knew your mom and dad well and I've known them most of my life. Jeanette was 1 of my mom's (Omazell Cantrell) closest friends. They worked together at DunDee Mills since the day it opened. Jeanette made a huge impact on my childhood. She was always there for mom and for us. I thanked God every day for the blessing of Jeanette. She was of a gentle spirit here, and I am proud and honored to have known her. May God bless you and your family and dont worry, she is with God now; for she already earned her wings here on earth.
