Her family was the most important part of her life and she worked hard to support them. She held many positions in various jobs. She put her heart into every job and was a tremendous asset to all who had the privilege to work with her.
Jeannie enjoyed all things outdoors including fishing, hunting, gardening and yardwork. She valued all life. Her energy and tenacity were matched only by her compassion and love.
