Jeanne grabbed my hand one Sunday morning and led me to the choir loft to sing with the choir. Believe me there was no telling her no! Since then I sing in the Choir. If it was not for her I would of never had the guts to join the choir on my own. After a Thanksgiving church luncheon, I was helping in the kitchen on clean up duty. I threw away the gravy that was left over. Oh boy did I get a lip lash from her not to ever ever ever throw left over gravy away. Since then I am very careful to look to see who is in the kitchen when I am throwing left overs away! Jeanne was so very sweet to me the moment I walked into the church. She made me feel very welcome and loved. She will be missed!

I met Jeanie 4 years ago @ Peachtree Retirement Village of Farmington where she lived at the time and done her hair every week until she left to Medi Homes of Prairie Grove about a year ago. She lived next door to my salon and visited daily with other clients and myself and was always so fun and shared her laughter and tales with us all there. I missed her greatly when she moved, and will never forget her smile, her laugh, her friendship. I am so glad to have known Jeanie as she touched my heart. What a pleasure to have been able to have her as my client and friend even if just for a short few years, I will miss her as so many will. She was a neat lady and very loved!
