Not sure what to say?

Jeanette was such a special lady and I am beyond thankful I had the pleasure to know her. Prayers for all during this time


So sorry to read that Jeanette had passed. The Wampler family was almost our next door neighbors when I was growing up in Englewood in the 1950s. Odene & Billie were closet to me in age. We spent countless hours shooting hoops into a makeshift goal attached to a shed in my back yard. Our biggest opponet was a utility pole that we had to manuver around. I still think about those fun days often.














My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Becky Shell
