May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

No more sorrows and no more pain. The angels rejoiced...Gone but not forgotten

You will be missed.

Dear Meme & Jocelyn,
I can truly say that I know how you feel. Losing my mom was one of the hardest things I have ever had to face. While at Jeannes funeral, I was thinking to myself.... My mom, Jo Ann, and Jeanne are with each other! They are walking those streets of gold, praising God, laughing, talking and are no longer in any pain!! Jeanne and mom were dear friends and it did my heart good to know that they are once again together in Heaven! As much as I wish they were both...

Dear Peggy,
I know your heart is heavy but know that Jeanne truly loved and appreciated you. During this time I know that your memories and knowing that Jeanne is with the Lord will carry you through. I loved Jeanne dearly and will miss her. Throughout her sickness she was such an encouragement. She had a sweet, gentle, loving spirit and will be missed greatly. I will continue to pray for you. One day we'll all be together again!

Dearest Meme,

Please know you will always have my friendship and prayers. The reason this note in Jeanne's beautiful tributes is late is because, beyond my understanding, I have just now found this in my yahoo mail.

You, know my previous notes are full of love and prayers.

God bless you and your entire family,

Mel Patterson

Dear Family and Friends:
Wow. What a fighter our Jeanne was. I can only hope and pray that I can have just a portion of the spirit she had when I go through trials of sickness and/or life. She won though!! She is with her Lord. Boy, will she be missed around here though. We love you all.

Dear Peggy, Jocelyn and Family,

As you know, Jeanne was a dear friend to me. She lived her life and faced her illness with more courage than I have ever seen before. I never heard her complain or say "why me?" She would tell you what was going on with her, never looking for sympathy. She always knew who was in control and was accepting of His will.

I use to tell her often: "Jeanne, you are such an inspiration to me. When I grow up, I want to be just like you!" ...

Dear Meme and family,
Jeanne was a rare jewel. It is not everyday that you cross paths with a person as humble, caring, loving, and giving as Jeanne was. Our friendship was indeed special and one that I will forever hold dear. Although my heart is heavy knowing that my friend is no longer here, I am so happy she is no longer in any pain. Most of all, I rejoice with you knowing that she has "arrived."

She always wanted to be sure her life was pleasing to God, which is why she...
