Think of Aunt Jeannie often, she was like a second mom to me.

I am a cousin of Genes, and our family always thought Jeannie was such a sweet person. Your family has our sincere sympathy in your loss.
My husband Leo, and I furnished the hog for the annual Metzgar hog roast at Ralph and Bettys farm, which I feel sure some of you attended
sometimes. We have moved from the farm to a condo in Lancaster in our elderly years. May the Lord give you comfort at this time.

Dear Janet, Carol, Chris, David, and Mary, please accept my deepest condolences. Your mother was not only my mother's bestfriend, she was a gift to me at my Baptism- my Godmother. Your parents remained dear friends of my parents throughout their lives. If heaven has a golf course, our fathers are playing 18 holes. And if heaven has a Denny's, our mothers are sitting there enjoying scripture, great conversation, and coffee/milk shakes. Love, Cathy
