Jeanne enjoyed many things in life including travel with her family, especially to Cape Cod and with the Hillsborough Seniors and Senior Tripsters, Inc. In addition she loved walking, reading, keeping current with events on the computer, playing games on line and gardening (even pulling weeds at home!).

She was well known to her family and friends for sending cards for all occasions. Her sports interests included rooting for the Mets, NY Giants, and even Tom Brady.

Jeanne Marie lived with her daughter and son-in-law in North Las Vegas. Both were at Mom's bedside when she died.

Mom will be forever in our hearts.
