Jeannetta truly lived life to the fullest through simple pleasures as a Christian woman; hearing her say Christians never say “Good-Bye” just “Until we meet again”, and her enjoying spending quality time with her family and 117 grandchildren, encouraging and making sure none of them ever went hungry, she always had something baking up in the oven for them. She had an uncanny ability to reach people in a deep and positive way. A LIMB HAS FALLEN FROM OUR FAMILY TREE THAT SAYS GRIEVE NOT FOR ME, REMEMBER THE BEST TIMES, THE LAUGHTER, THE SONG, THE GOOD LIFE I LIVED WHEN I WAS STRONG!
