Jeanie, what a kind soul you were. My life is better, in so many ways, to have known you. You were an angel in disguise here on earth, and now you have your wings in heaven.

An angel on earth she was. I don't know what we would have done without her. She helped raise my three daughters, they are, in part, who they are because of her. We love you Jeanie Beenie.

Condolences to the family. She was the nicest person and the best sitter for your children. Loved having her in my life and the lives of my kids. May God receive her with open arms.

You were a great part of my life. I'm going to miss our game days, eating Chinese food with you or just hanging out and laughing at some of the dumbest things. You were my rock when Roger died and every other time I needed someone. You are greatly missed but you will always be in my heart. Have a great reunion with the others that have gone before you.

Such a wonderful lady and beautiful memories of you and Jimmy. The trip to Tennesse, fishing and camping, teaching me to drive your Morris Minor, the violin shaped jewelry pin you gave me at my recital, your "famous" chilli mac dinners, calls and long letters. So many, many good times I could write a book. Those were the good ole days. Missing you already.
