Mrs. Jeanne M. Benson, 65, of McDonough, GA passed away Monday July 17, 2023. She was born in Clearfield, PA to the late Joseph Morris and Patricia (Wrigley) Morris. Jeanne is preceded in death by her husband, Carl Davis Benson, Jr.; daughter, Amanda Summers; brother, Carl Morris; and grandmother, Helen Wrigley.
Jeanne was an outgoing person who loved surrounding herself with people. She welcomed all through her door and never met a stranger who did not find her generous and loving. She was gifted in the arts, painting, dancing, and especially singing. Her talent even led her to perform in the Swedish National Opera as a foreign exchange student. She enjoyed being outdoors, fishing, and most importantly watching her grandkids play sports. Jeanne may have been sporty but loved everything pink - even her athletic attire. She had a passion for gaming in every sense from cards, computers, to darts and was even a world class Tetris player. She loved immersing herself in fantasy novels, escaping into deep adventures within her own imagination. She loved painting and tatting the most tedious and detailed pieces.
What cannot be understated is her intelligence and wit. She was the first person you would want on your trivia team and her antics and jokes would ensure no one was angry when she inevitably won again. She will be missed dearly by her family and all the lives she touched for she was cherished and adored by all.
Mrs. Benson is survived by her daughter, Jamie Benson (Vincent Quattrocchi); son, Benjamin (Esmeralda) Benson; grandchildren, her heart Nolan Quattrocchi, Daniel Cowan, Justin Whitt, Kayla Neidwick, her loving “D boys” - Dawson, Davis, and Dylan Edwards; her adoring brother Michael Morris; her best friend in the world and sister, Jennifer Morris; step daughters, Lori (Phillip) Edwards, Stephanie Benson Williams (Pete LeRoy).
