To Jeanie and the family, I’m so sorry for your loss. What an incredible person she was. I always enjoyed being around her. From the memories I have as a child up to seeing her just last year, she never changed. She was that person you always wanted to talk to, so warm, fun-loving, and full of life. She was taken too soon and I know she’ll be missed terribly. Love and prayers for you all
