I grew up with Jeanette Crocker Daniels at Walnut school in all grades. We played basketball together, our dads were good friends, serving on school board together, our mothers were good friends. I will especially miss her at the Walnut Singings . Please know the family will be in my prayers, and may God give you comfort and peace.

Uncle Boney, Ellen & Earl, Billy & Judy, Becky & Mickey, and all grandkids and great grandkids,

Please accept our deepest sympathies for Aunt Jeanette. She was very dear to our family and I have very fond memories of her and our visits together with daddy and momma. Her laughter was wonderful and I loved her home cooked meals! You will all be in my prayers. Love, Tammy Daniels Martin & Family
