Our family grew up playing card games and canasta was a favorite. Jeannette and I would play all the time. One day we were playing and in the first hand I went out with two concealed canastas when she hadn't even gotten on the board yet and she was left with a bunch of cards in her hand and a negative score. We both laughed but she vowed to never play "concealed canasta" with me again. Lol! We always laughed about that day. Wonderful memories of my sister.

Jeannette would have been so happy...her girls got together today and learned how to can pears. All the years I watched my dear sister can everything from fruit and vegetables to bread and meat. She would have appreciated their activity today and that they spent the day together. I miss you but know you are in heaven and feeling fine. Can't wait to see you there when God calls me home.

Jeannette was my foster mother, but more than that she was my mom. Jeannette showed me what unconditional love was, she taught me how to accept that love, and then how to put that love back out into the world. She was my hero, my saving grace, and the reason why I’m alive today. She was my friend, my mentor, and my heart. She took me in, when I had no one, and gave me a chance at life. I am successful because of her. I have learned to love myself and that I am worthy of love because of her. She showed me what it meant to have a family. She taught me everything in life. She taught me how to stand up for myself, how to believe in myself, how I should always reach for the stars and never stop learning or growing. She taught me how to be a friend to others, how to always pay it forward, how to be passionate about things in life, and about how to give it your all when going after what you want in life. She taught me about strength, having honor, showing dignity, giving and gaining respect, about perseverance when faced with adversity, and about being brave when all you really want to do is give up and give in. She taught me how to dream. She taught me how to be accountable and how to learn from my mistakes and how to hold others accountable. She taught me how to forgive but never to forget. She taught me how to see the good in people and how to be positive. She taught me to always look for the light in even the darkest of places. She taught me to always keep moving forward and to never look back. She taught me how to live life without regrets. Jeannette was a remarkable woman, full of knowledge, compassion, integrity, and love. I am forever changed having known her. I am devastated at her loss but I am comforted knowing she’s in the arms of our Lord and Savior. I will miss you terribly mom.

I have grown to know Jeannette for almost a decade, and I will miss how much she enjoyed to share her knowledge and wisdom. She enjoyed playing card games, and she would never pass an opportunity to play cribbage whenever she had the chance to play against Katie and myself. In fact, because she showed us how to play, Katie and I were able to compete in a cribbage league over the past 5 years in Oshkosh! Her favorite places to eat were what she called "Mom and Pop" resturants such as Mary's in Appleton, Ginos in Fond du Lac, and especially places that served hamburgers such as Hardees. She had a passion for helping people and working out ways to solve problems. Even though she is gone on earth, she is with her Lord, and will never be forgotten!

My sister came to know the Lord later in life and it was such a blessing to see the fruits of the Spirit in her and to hear all the biblical truths God was revealing to her. I'm going to miss her greatly but am comforted knowing she is in our true home with our older sister Denise and our mom and dad in heaven...healthy, whole and happy in Jesus' presence. "For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain." ~Philippians 1:21
