We looked forward to seeing her on the week-ends when we owned the store. The happy smile, the joking around, the kindness she always showed to everyone.
Jr. our prayers are with you and may God watch over you and your family. She will be missed.

Jeanie was one of the sweetest people that I have ever known. I was lucky enough to have her for a sister-in-law.
She had a way to make you feel welcome no matter what and always had a smile and a laugh ready to share.
There are no words to express how much she will be missed.
I know that God is enjoying that smile now and I know he will be there to comfort you Junior and Jimmie.
