Jeanne loved her family dearly, always putting their needs first. She was a phenomenal cook and prepared a sit down dinner every night of the week, from scratch, while raising her family. She enjoyed years of making ceramics, quilting, crocheting, sewing and making cards, each personalized for the recipient & occasion. Along the way made some very dear friends, gathering once a month for dinner & lunches out. We can only imagine the joyful reunion she's having now, most of all with Danny!
