Pam, you and your family will be in my thoughts during this difficult time. May she rest in peace.
From the first time I met Jeannie I felt her caring and compassion. She was a true friend, mentor and I knew that she was always only a phone call away. To someone who loved to celebrate, always making each day a special occasion. I looked up to her as a teacher and always knew if she wanted to let you know something she would do just that and keep us in “check”. I will never forget this lady who was a true, genuine friend. I know that she is up in a better place keeping an eye on us all with that beautiful heartwarming smile. Jeannie thank you for being an important part of my life.
My Dearest Mike , I cannot express how sorry I feel for your loss. Jeannie was an amazing women. Her compassion, service to others and love of family and friends was without boundary or condition. We will miss her light among us but know that she still shines in our hearts and memories.
May you and your family find peace and light in the coming days. She is with you.
With our deepest sympathies.
Diane and Stephen Stabinski
