I was so very sad to hear the passing of Jeannine last night when I was out line danicng. That is how I first met Jeannie so many years ago. She was extremely good at it and I loved dancing with her. We shared many Saturday nights having a great time dancing and most of all laughing. My prayers and thoughts go out to her family. May she be dancing with the angels.
