Mike, Todd and family and Sharon. Jeannie was a story teller who loved sharing tales of her parents, especially her dad, her husband and family and her best friend. Sharon. We spent long conversations sharing family history, because our Grandmothers were sisters and I never knew that before. We exchanged Christmas cards but really got closer when her and Mike moved to Tomahawk into her parents home. We'd look thru old pictures and she'd bring them all back to life. Because of her, I saw the first picture of my great grandfather and his obituary...she had a copy of that. She was full of history and comical stories. She wasn't tall by any means, but would not stand down to anyone. She was a seamstress, crocheted, had multiple swing machines and was very talented. She made many Halloween costumes for her son. She loved to cook when she was still able and guarded her mother's recipes. A kind and loving aunt, she took care of her nieces as well as having a day care when she was healthy. Mike would go to bingo with her and her best friend, Sharon and Don, Sharons husband. They all loved bingo locally and out of town. I miss her and am grateful for the memories she shared, at a time in her life when her memories were slipping away. I love you Jeannie and miss you. I will never forget her husband's last words to her. See you later. I've always loved you. Your Cousin, Terry
