I will miss you cousin - I remember summers when I would stay with you for a week or two at your parent´s home. Walking to the plaza up on Bay Rd., cutting my hair pixie short because it looked so good on you and I wanted to emulate my older cousin, talking and laughing late in your bedroom - you were a wonderful cousin and friend - rest peacefully Jeanne

I´m so sorry Diane & Marilyn. Jeanne was one of my first & best friends when I moved to Webster in 5th grade & stayed friends all through school. I enjoyed seeing her many times & reminiscing when she worked at Wegmans several years ago. She was always sweet! My thoughts & prayers go out to you. RIP My Dear Friend! Bonnie Coy Stein
