Jeanette was a dear friend and relative, by marriage. We had so much in common through the family, but also both of us were teachers and counselors. We saw each other through the years, and called frequently. I loved her and will miss her, and to Susie, Terry,Keith, Jana and family I send all of you love and sympathy. Ruth
Mrs. Bell was my counselor at Emerson High School many years ago and she will always hold a special place in my heart. May God surround your family with peace at this time. She was loved by many.
I was saddened to hear the news about Jeannette. She was a super sweet lady and favorite teacher at Mineral Springs High School. My thoughts and prayers are with all of the Bell family members.
Love,

Mrs.Bell was a fellow vendor at the flea market in Mayflower and she was such a delight to visit with when our paths crossed. Her mood was always upbeat and it made my day to see her and listen to her life experiences. She will be greatly missed. My condolences go out to her family.

Ms. Jeanette was my high school biology/science teacher. Loved the field trips that she took us on at their farm. Prayers to the family.
Thinking of you and praying for you during this difficult time. Jeanette was a wonderful lady and left a wonderful legacy in her children and grandchildren. Jana my dear friend, my heart breaks for your loss. Your mom was also your best friend. I saw it daily and enjoyed stories of the things you shared. Hold tight to those good memories. Losing a mom leaves a void in your heart. Time heals the pain but that place in your heart is forever reserved only for her. Call me if I can help. Take care. I want to see you and visit when you have time.
My condolences to the family
