I was so saddened to hear of Jeannette's passing. I used to talk with her when I would see her on DSCR. She always had a kind word and a sparkle in her eye. Not long after that I saw her at Saint Anns. Seemed we had two things in common. My sympathies to her family and other friends. Jeannette rests in the Light of Our Risen Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

I was so sadden to hear about Jeanette's health and recent passing. She worked with me at DLA Aviation. She was a hard worker and so very pleasant to work with. She gave me a beautiful pearl bracelet when I moved on to another job. Everytime I wear it, I think of her. I'm wearing it today in her honor.

My deepest sympathy to you, Iris, on the loss of Jennette. I never personally met her, but Carol and I worked together as she spoke of her often so I felt I did know her. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family always. She is resting peacefully in heaven with Carol and her brother now. God Bless you all.

Mrs. Martin and family,
I am so saddened by Jeannette's leaving us-I feel a part of me is gone. We had such good times eating and shopping. When I look across the street it is such an emptiness-I still look for her light every night.
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers and I am so thankful that Jeannette was a part of my life.
I am here for you if you need me.
Much love to all,
Patsy

I was very shocked to read about the passing of Jeannette. We went through several classes in Colonial Heights High School together and I am glad I had the opportunity to know her. She was a sweet, quiet girl and was respected by all. I know she will be greatly missed by family and friends. I send my sincere sympathy to all. Margaret Petty Suyes
