If you visited Jeanie in her home, you better have been ready to play cards. She adored having family and friends gather around the kitchen table for a competitive game of 7’s, Skipbo, Canasta or even dominoes. There was also cookies and Yoohoo on tap. She was a merciless player and everyone knows her number one rule: “There is no love in cards.” Many unforgettable memories have been made around that table.

She left us beautiful memories and her love will always be our guide. Although we cannot see her, she will always be by our side.
