Jeanette Curie age 73 went home to God on the morning of 5/19/23. David, her life partner was by her side holding her hand as he was for the last 32 years.

She was preceded in death by her Mother, Margorie Byrne [Lucky, Nickelson], Father, Carl N. Lucky, son, Onie Curie, brother, Jack Nickelson, Sister, Barbara Nickelson, nephew, Guy C. Martin, and Niece, Autumn. Jeanette is survived by her partner, David Williams, son, Daenen Curie, sister, Judy Lucky-Markle [Jim], grandson, Oscar Pennell and his mother, Paula, Nieces, Tina Murdock [Sam], ShawnaMay Markle, nephews, Wayne and Todd Martin[Maggie], Jackson [Macy]and Dustin Martin, Joseph Enriqez [Delaney],and nieces Amanda Enriqez, Margaret Martin, and Christian Martin, and all of the children of the above, Graciela, Juliet-Rose, Sophia, Dallas, Jaycob, and Ripley. Every Christmas Jeanette would be surrounded with all of the above family so she will be missed by all.
Jeanette was a gentle soul and loved animals especially bunnies and cats. She would feed all the squirrels and chipmunks of the neighborhood and get thrilled when they came by. She was involved with trying to protect all the animals that she could. On the outside Jeanette was a beautiful woman who knew how to dress, wear makeup, carry herself and be a lady. However, if you knew Jeanette, you would know she was very silly, quirky and childlike at times. She loved to joke around and experience laughing. She had a good sense of humor and loved to just be herself. She enjoyed her friends, family, David and their cat Rudy Finley. She loved coffee, sweets, teddy bears and bunnies. Jeanette enjoyed the pampering and love her husband David showed her every day of their lives together. Jeanette loved animals and was very passionate about their humane and compassionate treatment. If Jeanette knew about an animal being mistreated she would post the information and rally everyone she knew to bring awareness about the mistreatment and expose the cruelty. Jeanette loved her and David's cat "Rudy Finley" a true pampered pet. people loved Jeanette she was an easy person to be around and share your feelings with. She listened intently and expressed compassion when a friend or family member were in need of a shoulder to support them. Jeanette was in some ways like her mother, very kind, gentile, considerate, funny, and compassionate. Although Jeanette experienced many things in life that would have turned many to negative cruel people, Jeanette became more compassionate and kind. She didn't lose the goodness she possessed, instead, she became a champion for animals and their care, she cared about others and how they felt and she didn't loose the silly and loving person she was. Jeanette also believed in God and believed there is a greater purpose and plan after the death of this life. She imagined bunnies, her mom, son Onie and family members welcoming her to heaven, a place of peace and happiness.
