Jenette was a generous soul, offering unconditional support and care to family and friends. She was very close to her siblings, sharing a special bond with her brother Larry whom she lived with until his passing. She was a woman with a heart of gold who touched the lives of everyone she met. If you were fortunate enough to be one of these people, you knew that she would always be there when you needed her. She never forgot a birthday or anniversary, and whenever she came to visit, she was never empty-handed. The mere mention of wanting or needing something sent Jenette on an always successful mission to find it for you. She was a woman of many talents and interests. She will be fondly remembered and sadly missed by her friends and colleagues at WSIB, where she worked for many years.
