For 25 years, she molded the minds of her AP English students. Outside of the classroom she spent countless hours perfecting their college essays and recommendations to elite schools across the country. At home, she was a brilliant painter and cook and an avid baseball fan.
Jeanette is survived by her sons Benjamin and William and daughter-in-law Ashley, mother-in-law Johnna, sister and brother-in-law Thomas and Patti Jahncke, nieces Carter Perrilliat and E. Lee Mead.
