  1. Aunt Jeanettey was like a Grammy to us! She was one of the most fun loving and caring women ever! She loved going on adventures – both in person and in spirit. I am so happy she is reunited with her family and home with the Lord. I can't wait to give her a big fat hug again in heaven!

  2. I love you Gram. This world will never be the same without your beautiful soul in it. I'm going to miss sleepovers at your house, your amazing cooking, and the way you were able to make the most horrible situations bearable. There is no other in the world as amazing as you in my eyes. Till we see each other again I will carry you in my spirit. I love you forever and always! Because of you and the way you were with me, I will have some pretty big shoes to fill when I'm a grandmother!! One thing that eases my pain is now I know I have an angel fighting hard for me up there! Love , Baby Eyes

  3. Jeanette was my cousin and in September of 1955 she and her late husband Larry not only stood up with me and my late husband Neil when we got married they also went on our honeymoon with us. Sharron Bricker
