Not sure what to say?

Jeanese is not forgotten.

Six years have gone by now since Jeanese left us all sad, and I had to read again all about her legacy. Wow! What an impressive life she had. It still amazes me! She is a treasure to have known in our own lifetimes. My thoughts are with all of you at this time. June Christensen Casey Mountain View

How do words describe Jeanese. She was special. Always kind, soft spoken, thoughtful are some of thing qualities on the inside. On the outside she was very pretty. We were in the same class at Paly. To me she was one of the outstanding people that I can remember. To your family I'll bet she was the star - the shining light. That light will always shine in your hearts and memories.
My deepest sympathy to all of you.

My thoughts are with you. She was the most passionate designer I ever worked with. I feel blessed that I knew Jeanese . She will be missed.

They evidently broke the mold after her, as they just don't make them like that anymore. Love the antidotr about Defe booting Gregg off the starting block. She' brought love to the world through her children and grandchildren. Stoic strong woman from Palo Alto are to be revered. She did it right. And you are all blessed to have her as your guiding light. Many thoughts and prayers to all your family. May the coming days bring peace as you heal. Sincerely. Pam Gray Richmsn.

Dearest Tess,
You were, and are, the best daughter your Mother could have asked for. She is still with you and watching out for you and your family, and she is so very proud of you--your strength and your kindness.

Dear "Bobber" and all of the Rowell family,
Our memories are what keep us alive and the fact
that we have all been enriched by the gift of knowing each other over these many years.
My love is with you all and with Jeanese and Dougie. She was a great lady, as he was a gentleman and a gentle man.
With deepest sympathy,
Jeanie and the Horner Family

My heart goes out to the Rowell Family at this time. I went to school with Jeanese at Jordan and Paly. We both graduated in 1950. I knew Jeanese as a kind, sweet, soft speaking gal. I also knew Skip. She certainly had a full filling life and has left quite a legacy and lots of memories for everyone. I know she is resting peacefully. She certainly will be missed.
My deepest sympathy.
