I'm sorry for your loss. Jeanne was such a beautiful person who wore a beautiful smile every time I saw her. It's sad that she's gone but I'm glad she's in a better place.

It just seems so surreal. I'm glad her pain is gone. Yours will eventually ebb. I knew her as long as Sherry and Pam-just not as well. Everything people have mentioned about her are traits I remember.

Jeanne and I gave communion together for some time at St. Barnabas, and I can't remember a time when she didn't have a beautiful and welcoming smile for me. I am quite certain she was an outstanding wife and mother.
