Jeanne Workman Obituary

Jeanne Lynn Workman, 67, of Anderson, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, October 28, 2025. She was born in Fort Wayne on June 30, 1958, the daughter of William Sr. and Betty (Hurst) Workman.
Jeanne was one of a kind with a vibrant personality and a heart of gold. She loved spending time with family and friends, and her laughter could light up any room. BINGO was one of her favorite pastimes, and she also enjoyed playing pull tabs, coloring, and relaxing with her favorite country music and an ice-cold Bud Light. Jeanne attended many concerts over the years, including performances by Kenny Chesney and Toby Keith, two of her favorites.
Some of Jeanne's most cherished times were the years she spent being cared for by her sister, Diane.
Jeanne is survived by her siblings: William Jr. (Deb) Workman, Rollie (Jo Ann) Workman, Diane Shields, Steve (Darlene) Workman, John Workman, and Pam (Rocky) Harris; along with many nieces, nephews, and friends who loved her dearly. She was preceded in death by her parents; her sister, Lori David and her sister-in-law, Kelley Workman.
The family extends heartfelt gratitude to Michelle Koontz and staff at Envive Healthcare for their care, kindness, and support of Jeanne throughout the years.
Jeanne's life will be celebrated privately by her family.
