Jeanette B Foxlow, 88, of Rollinsford, NH passed away peacefully on August 2nd at Wentworth Douglas Hospital. Born in Dover, NH on September 13, 1934, she was the beloved daughter of Harold Brown and Mary Brown (Fargo).
Jeanette married William James Foxlow, Jr., for 51 years. She worked at Davidson Rubber for many years as a factory worker before her retirement. A lifelong resident of New Hampshire Jeanette was a very active member of the American Legion for 34 years and volunteered monthly breakfasts, an event everyone looked forward to.
Jeanette loved cooking, musicals, and traveling to Boston to see some of her favorite places including Faneuil Hall and the Cheers Bar. She also really enjoyed spending time at the family cottage on Wells Beach and having delicious lobster bakes. Jeanette was always down for activities and among her hobbies and passions were being a member of the Barfly club, doing puzzles, gardening, mowing the lawn, and raking leaves in the fall. She was a very opinionated woman but was such a loving and loyal person. She loved her family and her friends above everything else.
Jeanette was predeceased by her parents Harold and Mary Brown, her husband William James Foxlow, Jr., her son Dennis Libby, her son-in-law Brian Penny, and her brothers Robert and Ronald Brown.
She is survived by her son, William Foxlow, III and spouse Lisa, her daughter Jennifer Penny, her niece Sharon Rivera, her best friend Sally Hayes, her companion Bob Bisson, niece Michelle Loring, nephew Kevin Brown, as well as many grandchildren, great- grandchildren, and friends.
Jeanette was a truly wonderful mother, grandmother, friend, coworker, and person. She will be truly missed by all who had the pleasure of being a part of her life. Every time a cardinal flies by, we ask that you think of Jeanette, as they were her favorite bird.
A visitation will take place Saturday August 12th from 9:30-10:30 at McIntire McCooey Funeral Home in South Berwick, ME, followed by a Graveside Service at New Town Cemetery in Rollinsford, NH at 11:00AM.
