I am so very sorry to find out about Jeanette. I am originally from Jamestown NY and have lived in Charlotte NC for 45 years, so unfortunately lost contact with Jeanette. She was my cousin and was in my wedding. My memories of her are her beautiful smile and the best, non judgmental friend a girl could ask for. A true angel on earth. May God bless all of you. You are in my prayers.

My deepest sympathy David, Jimmy, Marie, Michael, Aunt Ethel, family & friends of my cousin Jeanette. I have so many memories of us growing up. I still talk about how my cousins married each other! May God help you through this heartbreaking time. I believe Jeanette is now with the rest of our family that has passed & that we will all be together again. Praying for us all.

To the Helms/Grisanti family: I was so sorry to hear about my dear friend. She was a very special lady. We saw each other a few years ago at a McMahon reunion. We were friends I. Our freshman year at Mt St Joe´s and we both transferred to Bishop McMahon. We were Bishop Fallon cheerleaders and valued our friendship through the years. I remember going to the house on Richmond and the Potomac Superette. My heart goes out to the whole family - it´s sudden incidents like this that encourage
us to reflect and be thankful for every day we open our eyes. May God bless.
