Read MoreIts impossible to put into words what an influence and idol Jeanette was to me. I may have just been her hairdresser for 30+ years, but she has added so much inspiration and introspection to my life. I am extremely grateful to have known her, if for just an hour or so a month.

In memory of Dr. Jeanette Gecsy Grasselli Brown
I often read of her donations to Ohio University in my Alumni magazine. Today I read of her many contributions to various organizations and her leadership. What a brilliant scientist and giving woman.
My deepest sympathy to Dr. Brown's family.
