    Kenny, Sue, Chrissy and all of Jeanie’s family, we are so sorry to hear of her passing. She was one of the most wonderful and uplifting persons I have ever known. I loved her smile and laughter. That is what I shall remember. We shared a lot of dispatch stories. She left a lasting impression o this earth. Now she is in her heavenly home and I am sure she is happy in ways we cannot know. You are all in my prayers that the Lord be with all of you to help you through this sorrowful time.

    Dear Ken and kids- there are no words to convey the pain we are experiencing with the loss of Jeane. In reality I truly believe we mourn not because Jeane is now pain-free and free of the confines of her body. I think we mourn for ourselves, for the enormous void we will all feel in our lives without her. A pain that will only lessen with time and the Grace of God. I miss her so much and know you do even more so. -me

    My condolences go out to you and your family in this difficult time. I would like to share a beautiful Bible hope from God found in Revelation 21:3, 4 that assures us He will wipe all tears from their eyes, and there will be no more death, suffering, crying, or pain. This Scripture has helped me and many others to be able to cope with the loss of a loved one. I hope it helps you also.

    Ken, Sue, Brian, Chris, Bobbi and families:
    We were very sorry to learn of cousin Jeanie’s illness and passing. It had been a very long time since I’d seen her because they all moved from Minnesota so long ago. I posted a photo my mother Jeane has of Aunt Lorraine and Uncle Lyman’s family circa 1964 – Lorraine, Lyman, baby Chris, Jeanie, Sue & Jack (Brian was away at school?). I was pleased to see that Jeanie had the same sweet smile as an adult.

    Kenny, and family, we are so sorry to hear Jeane has passed away so suddenly. She loved her dogs, and her birds, so Jeane and I had that in common. Our deepest sympathies.
