I just learned of the passing of Mr. Jeansonne. I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences to his family. Being a friend of David Jeansonne when we were in high school and fellow ham radio operator as Mr, Jeansonne and David was, I knew him to be a good man and loving father. My prayers will be offered for the repose of his soul and for the consolation of his family.

Daddy, it's been a month since you were sent home. A month that has changed everyone who loves you, but this is just the beginning of a new life not just for you and Mama but for all. Love you. Until we meet again.

Daddy, Uncle George said when he came away from your funeral, he was struct with the words "FACE TO FACE" and was startled and didn't know what to think. He said that this is what you are experiencing----
"FACE TO FACE"
Face To Face I am now in his presence
Face To Face how I longed to see him
Face To Face my life was so empty so it seemed, but now I see Him Face To Face
Mamma and Daddy I miss and love yall so much. Yall come visit me in my dreams.
ALL MY LOVE -- DIANNA

Paw paw may you rest in peace. You were such a strong man! Not just physically, but mentally and emotionally. Your faith and family values will forever be instilled into your loved ones. No more pain, no more suffering. You are healthy and back with Maw Maw again. My friend just passed away a couple days before you. His name is Brian Grabert, and I know if you get the chance to meet him in heaven, he will keep you entertained. I love you and pray that your look down on your loved ones in these hard times. Thank you for being my father figure, role model and leader when I was a kid. I will be forever greatful for all the things you have taught me, and I can only hope that when my time is over with on this earth I will leave a lasting impression and such an overwhelming legacy as you have!!
