Our thoughts and prayers are with you family!
You were blessed with a beautiful wife, mother, grandmother--inside and outside. We were blessed to know her as a great family friend. She will always be remembered as a gentle, kind person with soo much love to give. So glad we were able to see her, hug and pray with her a few months ago. Wish we could have been there for her service. It must have been as beautiful as she was. She is definitely resting in peace with her sweet Lord and Savior. God Bless You All!!

Mr. Buddy, Jan and family - I am so sorry for you loss. Mrs. Jeannette was a very kind and loving woman. She was my religion teacher. I know the loss is great, but please find some comfort that she is no longer suffering. I personally have never had anyone "close" to me battle this disease, but I have enough knowledge to know it is brutal and unforgiving. She is dancing with the angels.
