She quit to travel with her husband Ed in 1995. Jeanie was a 50-year member of Beta Sigma Phi.

Her garden and flowers were a reflection of the care she gave to everything she loved. She was known for her delicious homemade pies, raspberry jam, relish, and zucchini bread, which she loved sharing with family and friends. She loved the time spent with her children and grandchildren and watching them in dance, soccer, baseball, basketball, football, theater, cheerleading, rodeo, golf, and coaching.
