May you rest in peace Jeanine. You will be missed. Many prayers and condolences for your family at this time.
My heart is here & now. The years & the memories of love, laughs & greatness surpasses forever families. Our families will forever be entwined. My love for each of you will always continue as our families grow. I love each of you. My heart has so many emotions & feelings. She was my second Mom. Always there to tell me when I was wrong, tell me what I should do & how. She was great at making me laugh at how silly things were. I loved every memory & I hold them close to my heart. From vacations to the beach to good ole pool days, to our families Christmas. & just taking care of each other. That’s what will remain in my heart. Just love… I forever love your family & parents like my own. 💓
I met Jeanine at bingo she was a lovely person. We shared a few things in common like how important family was making those memories on trips and bingo. I found out later that she worked with my sister for years at Prudential. Jeanine would have co-workers over for Christmas dinners and she homemade all the good. We will miss her smile!
I will be there in spirit. God bless all the family.
I am proud to have called her my sister-in-law for 26 years.
I loved my Aunt Jeanine and will sure miss her.
My heart is broken over your passing. You were my bingo buddy! Lots of good times, alot of laughs & I learned a lot from our talks. You were always dolled up in your wonderful costume jewelry! Your faith was so strong. And always helping someone.
You were one of a kind..the best kind. I will always cherish our time together. Love you
R.I.P. Jeanine🩷
