My thoughts and prayers are with all of you! Jeannie made this world such a bright place! All that knew her, loved her! She will be missed. Fly high with your momma sweet angel!
Cravens family, some of my best working memories come from when I worked with Jeannie. She had a great sense of humor and a kind, beautiful soul. Outside of work we were friends as well and I miss her a lot. You all were truly blessed to have such an awesome momma. Be strong for each other, cherish all the memories you have of her and keep her alive in your hearts. Prayers, hugs and much love to you all. Nancy
Jeannie was the most loving and selfless woman I know. She was an amazing mother to her children and loved her family and grandchildren very much. I have been around this family for many years. Sheena and myself used to be super close in junior high and Jeannie was always so sweet to me and treated me like a child of her own. She will definitely be missed. I am sending all of my condolences, thoughts, love and prayers to the Cravens family. They are very good people, may god rest her soul. ♥️
Rest in peace, Jeanne. You will always be in my heart. I will always remember the fun times we had together in high school. You, Diana Hupp, and I were “besties.”
Manuel – Tom sends his condolences. He stated he could not imagine what you are going thru right now….
You two will be together in the Lord’s house someday – Hold onto that now, Manuel.
To Jeanne’s children & grandchildren, which I did not have the privilege to meet, know in your hearts that your Momma is with you in everything you do from here forward as she waits to meet you again in the afterlife.
Again we are so sorry to hear this news and we are praying for you all.
