Jeanne "Nawnie" Seydler, 69, of Fort Worth, TX, passed away peacefully on June 16, 2022 in Granbury, TX after a long battle with dementia and a recent stroke. 

Jeanne was born on July 16th, 1952  to George and Margaret Fowle in El Paso, TX. She moved with her family to Littleton,  Colorado in her early teens. After graduating from Arapahoe High School in 1970, she went on to study at the local community college.

She wed in 1974 and went on to have her first and only child, Rebekah "Beka" Elizabeth Seydler in 1976. Jeanne and her family moved to Grapevine, TX in 1980 and Saginaw, TX in 1981.  Jeanne spent the majority of her years in the Saginaw/Fort Worth area. She spent her final days at The Oaks Assisted Living in Granbury, TX where she was loved by many of the staff.

Jeanne was an avid lover of her family, friends and animals.  She was often given the responsibility of being the welcoming committee at the two assisted livings she resided in. She loved the staff at her home and was always excited to see them when they came in to work.  She and Beka helped rescue many a kitty cats over the years and she adored all the rescue dogs Beka saved, rehomed and adopted in her later years.  One of her favorite things was to have several of Beka's little dogs in her lap and have a picture taken of her.

Jeanne was predeceased by her parents George and Margaret Fowle.  She is survived by daughter- Beka Ratliff and husband, Jeff Ratliff; granddaughter- Hannah Foster, grandson- Jacob Shew, as well as many other surrogate grandchildren she loved along the way, including Cheyenne Seely, Luther Gibbs V and many, many others; as well as, several cousins who are from various cities in Texas, Maine and Washington, D.C..
