Published by Legacy on Jul. 7, 2022.
We our heartbroken to share the news of the sudden passing of our beloved wife, mother, daughter and sister, Jeanette Marie McQuillen, on July 1, 2022 in Jacksonville, Florida.
We our heartbroken to share the news of the sudden passing of our beloved wife, mother, daughter and sister, Jeanette Marie McQuillen, on July 1, 2022 in Jacksonville, Florida. Jeanette was the second child of four born to Rene Parkes and Robert Radecki in Buffalo, NY, on December 5, 1967. She grew up with three brothers, who lovingly referred to her as "the lava lady" and "wheatpuff".
She met the love of her life, Steve, while working at Wegman's, where she was eventually hired as an accountant after earning a Bachelor of Science degree from SUNY Buffalo. Jeanette completed her Master of Business Administration in 1996.
But her true calling was being a mother to her two boys, Justin and Connor, whom she loved and nurtured with a fierce devotion. Her patience, kindness and wisdom were gifts she gave to her boys and shared with everyone she met. She was known for her love of her lord and savior Jesus Christ, always putting other people first, along with her contagious laugh, and love of the color purple.
She will be laid to rest alongside her father Robert "Bob" Radecki and brother Robert "Bobby" Radecki in Buffalo, NY. She is survived by many heartbroken family members and friends, including her husband Steve, sons Justin and Connor, mother Rene (John) Parkes, brother Dale (Jennifer) Radecki, brother Brian (Michelle) Radecki, nieces and nephews and her cat Luna.
The family will receive visitors at Hardage-Giddens Oaklawn Chapel, 4801 San Jose Blvd, Jacksonville, Florida 32201, on Sunday, July 9, 2022 from noon-2 pm and a service led by Pastor Bob Hovey will be held at 2 pm.

It's hard to believe that it has been a year since the loss of our friend, Jeanette. We continue to be sad for our loss but are thankful for her gain, as she is enjoying the most beautiful place she has ever experienced and she is with her Lord that she loves
so much. We are also so incredibly thankful that through the loss of Jeanette, we have gained a really wonderful new friend as we've gotten to know Steve. What a brave, wise and strong man Steve is and what a dear friend he has become. We will continue to pray for the close family that misses this special woman so much. God bless you.

Dear family of Jeanette,
We are so sorry for your great loss. I am a friend of one of Jeanette´s close friends so had the fortunate opportunity to work alongside Jeanette on a few different outreaches. She soon became my friend because I loved her big heart and forever positive attitude. I never one time heard her complain or say an ill word about another person. Jeanette was the kind of person you just enjoyed being around. I know this makes her loss even harder. I am comforted to know I will see her again and grateful that she is with her Heavenly Father. God bless each of you dear family

Words are hard to find to express our sense of family loss with Jeanette´s passing. She had strength of spirit for all that came her way, fortitude (courage in pain or adversity), spirituality, unconditional love to many but most admirable she provided a home base of love for her beloved Steve, Justin and Connor. Jeanette will continue to guide them along their paths. She will be missed in body but felt in spirit forever. Love & hugs always

Jeanette and I became friends when our children were toddlers. Through the years, we grew closer as we navigated parenthood together. She was extremely proud of her boys and was their fierce advocate. Family and friends were everything to her. Jeanette was a kind-hearted, genuine person. I will miss her.
