Jeanie will always have a special place in my heart, as our funny little team at Faubion did some great things for kids. Jeanie loved her family so much, and would laugh and work hard, always with her feisty spirit! Marcee and my prayers go in honor of Jeanie, and for peace for the family.

Dee, I am so sorry for your loss of Jeanie. I know how hard it is. Lost my precious girl Ronna a couple years ago. There is no easy answer. Just trust God to see you through this. Praying for you brother.

Dear Pam and family,
I am so sorry to hear of Jeanie’s passing. I know my mother cared for Jeanie and got a lot of pleasure out of their friendship. Peace be with you all.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Jeanie was an amazing lady with a big heart!
I am so very sorry, not only that Jeanie’s family has lost such a clearly vibrant and inspiring mother/wife/sister/cousin/grandmother — but also that I, as one of the geographically distant cousins, have lost the opportunity to get to know her better. It’s been wonderful to follow Jeanie’s achievements, through the visits I’ve had with Pam, Ivan, and Julie, but I deeply regret that I didn’t really get to spend more time in my life with this remarkable woman. My heart goes out to all the family, and I wish I could join you this weekend to celebrate her life. Love to all of you from a Smith in Kansas.
Dee, So sorry for your families loss. My condolences to you and yours. May God bestow his love and blessings to all of your family in this time. God Bless you, and we send our love and prayers to help your healing.
Love,
Vince &Carlyn Bone
Dee and Family –
I just learned of Jeanie’s passing after reading about Pamela’s recent passing. Jeannie and I were gòod friends back in the 1960’s. We had a lot of adventures together, spent lots of time at Lake Austin and Northwest Park and at each others homes. She was always a lot of fun and she kept me guessing as to just what she would do next. Please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers!
