To Tim and the entire Tassmer family I extend my deepest condolences on the passing of Jeanette. What a wonderful person she was along with Stu. Their house was the hub of all "Pearl Ave" activity. From cards every night to "Beefs" at Big Top the whole gang hung out at Stu & Jeanettes for as long as I can remember. They took in "Rudy" and always treated him like one of the Pearl Ave kids. Outstanding People!!! May she now rest in eternal peace with her beloved Stuart. What an important part She and Stu played in the development of "All" of us Pearl Ave kids!! Never to be forgotten!!
