Jeannette was born Jeannette Kay Fisher on September 15, 1938, in Mason City, Iowa, the daughter of Ervin and Ruth Fisher. She graduated from Mason City High School in 1956.

From this union four children were born: Kevin Scott, Kelly Kay, Kirk William, and Kathy Ann.

Jeannette loved all kinds of music genre, especially country, and could often be heard singing along with her beautiful voice. She and Bill enjoyed dancing, camping at Madison Lake and watching Iowa Hawkeye basketball. Her greatest joy was her family and she enjoyed all the time she was able to spend with her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and extended family. After her husband Bill's death in 2003, Jeannette spent a few years traveling with her friend, Jim Stilwell before moving to Port Charlotte, Florida as a snowbird for 5 years before returning to the Midwest due to health concerns.
