Dear Balzer Family,
Sending my love and heartfelt condolences to each of you.   Jenny and Mike were both special people.   Very transparent and real. 
Myself and family attended mass at St. Bernardines and we usually sat together.  I moved to Las Vegas and had the pleasure of having lunch with Jeanny, her sister and two of the boys during their trip here.  Jenny always sent wonderful Christmas cards with pictures.   I finally called the week Jeanny passed.  She had been on my mind.   One thing for sure... God is holding her close to His heart and rejoices in  her presence. 
My sincere sympathy,
Michele F.

This is Judge Peter Noppenberg from Marinette, WI. Jeanne was my cousin. Her mother and my father were siblings. My late brother, Pat, would have been 69 on December 28, 2023. Our sympathy to Jeanne's family. Jeanne set a good example for many people, including myself. God bless her memory.

Jeanne, since we met in 1984, I have known you as a woman of heart. Your love, strength, courage, and faith have filled me, and your care of Matt, my son, was instrumental in both his growth and our growth as a family.  Who you are, your essence and spirit, are with us today.  I love you, Jeanne, and thank you for your friendship.

Jeanne - You have been a shining light to our family ever since baby Patrick met you in 1986.  Thank you for showing us how to live with a giving heart.  And in this past year, especially, thank you for all the lessons about acceptance.  Your grace lives in my heart.  May you and Mike be together at peace forever!  
Janelle, Jeff, Charlie, and Mike - May your Mom's love and strength surround you as you find your way through your grief.  Sending you all much love,
Kate & Jim, and family

Jeanne was the kindest, most beautiful, talented , and giving person who loved life. She was incredibly proud of her family. I was very fortunate to have her call me her friend. She will always have a place in my heart.

From the times I was little kid where you would babysit Ireland and I and would lie about us being good to mom and dad. To when you taught me all about board/card games. I will never forget these memories we have built over my 16 years of knowing you. I love you very much grandma.

My deepest condolences to the Balzer family. Jeanne was a lovely, lovely lady. Sweet, thoughtful generous and kind. My only regret is that I didn't know her better.

One of the most important and influential people in my life...  Jeanne, I'll miss you forever.   I'm grateful our lives crossed in so many ways and for so long.  You've been a gift and blessing to me and my family.
