Jeanne Klipping

We remember Aunt Jeanne as one of the most beautiful, graceful and loving women in our lives. We're not family (but friends of Tamarinde and Bob), but we considered Aunt Jeanne our Coloradan Aunty. A trip to CO (most summers between 99 and 09) was never complete until we visited with Jeanne, and... we enjoyed a couple of delicious Cosmopolitan Cocktails, or "Cossie Cockies' as we used to call them. It was a privilege to have known, loved and been loved by Jeanne. She will be sadly missed,...

Aunt Jeanne...what a special lady she was. I remember the day that I met her, I was so nervous. The minute she hugged me, I felt like I had known her forever. She made me feel so welcome and we talked for hours. She was such a caring and geniune woman. She lit up the room the moment she walked it. Her smile was as big as her heart. Her generosity was sincere. She will be deeply missed by ALL who knew her. Aunt Jeanne, we love you and miss you so much. Thanks for everything you have...

We'll miss her greatly, she always lit up the room whenever she came into our restaurant here at Mackenzie Place. We have all been blessed to know not only Jeanne, but all the family members who joined her here. Everything will be alright.

I am very blessed to be born into a family of Love. Aunt Jeanne knew how to give and share her love to many. My cousin Ron describes her well. My favorite memories of her were the weekends I spent with her as a child. We would cook,play dress up,had a special drawer of gum and candy and the best was the nest bed she made for me to sleep in. Aunt Jeanne made each and everyone of her neices and nephews feel special. I will miss her dearly and will continue to pass her love to my children and...

If you could describe Aunt Jeanne with a single word, it would be "class." She lived her life that way. She was a precious person to all who were fortunate to know her and she touched our hearts deeply and sincerely.
I have many fond memories of Aunt Jeanne while growing up. Sundays were family days and we always tried to meet at Grandma and Grandpa Klippings' house on North Meade. It was a small house and often all the nieces and nephews played outside or downstairs. On many occassions...
