Gary, Molly & family, I am so sorry to learn today of Jeanie's death. What a shock. We were friends all through Wahlert HS & found each other again of Facebook. She so loved you all & was so proud of you, Molly, and Christian & Sullivan. Jeanie always had a quick sense of humor and such a great laugh. Heaven has gained another Angel & I know she's watching over all of you. Please accept my heartfelt condolences & know you're in my prayers. God Bless all of you & Jeanie's family.

Jeannie was a good facebook friend. I remember her talking about Ozzie and Harriet. My condolences on her passing, I didn't realize.

Jeanie was a Facebook friend, I know a lot of her classmates. We run a cat rescue and produce some cat products. Jeanie posted a lot about a lot of things I think about and a lot about Ozzie. I'm so sorry for your loss.

One of my favorite memories is mom and I were watching a movie and we noticed out of the corner of our eye something large and black flying around our dining room. It was a bat. We both screamed and ran up the stairs to get dad and mom just kept saying "upstairs" over and over and over the whole time. It still makes me laugh when I think about it. That was about 30 years ago.

To Gary, Molly, and family, I want to send you my condolences. It seemed like every Sunday you two would pick me up and take me to the stock car races. I probably didn´t appreciate it then as much as I do now. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

I was a toddler. My parents were out for the evening, and Jeannie had a buncjh of people over. She sent me to bed. I came back downstairs and she told me to go back to bed. I said if I would tell "mommy and daddy" if she didn't let me say. She let me stay. Can't remember if I told them...I may have. That is the first time I remember my older sister looking out for me.
