It is with great sorrow that we learned of Jeanette's passing. She and Tony were very special people to all of the family of Glen Held, his sisters and their parents. We enjoyed many celebrations with them going back even to their dating days. We're sure Tony was there waiting to take her to her reward.
With love, Fred and Vera Richardson
