Jannette became so important to me, and she was a great teacher of life. We will always carry you in our hearts. I’m so thankful that you gave me a chance to be part of your life and build memories together. Losing you has been hard. I miss you a lot. I never knew I could have a great friend three times older than me. You taught me so many things in a really short time. I love that you were so kind and lovely and that you cared about everyone, even me. I admire that you always did your best every day and NEVER GAVE UP.

It's hard to believe that we made our own connection. We always had something to talk about or share. I felt that we were there for each other. God put us together, and when I was so lonely in life, you stretched your arms to hug me, your mind to give good advice, your ears to listen, and your heart to love me. We were two strangers, but over time it just felt like we were a family. You even let me call you Memaw, and that was so special to me.

It's unbelievable how fast you changed my life, and I’m pretty sure you changed the lives of many others too. I don’t need to have known you my whole life to know that you are a light in everyone’s life. You even let me be in the best hands with this process that is new for me, with your family. I’m so thankful to everyone for making me feel at home and that even if we’re not family, it just feels like one for me. We will all miss you forever. You look great in the sky, and that’s why you need to be there, even if it is hard to understand.

With lots of love and a few tears, Paola Maria Jose Dehler.

I was so sorry to hear of your mom passing. I was Jeannette third foster child I was fourteen and was in a bad situation when they agreed to take me into their home. I truly believe Jeannette saved my life and taught me what a normal home is along with how to cook bake and sew. I wanted to learn how to knit but being left handed I never could pick it up, but not from her lack of trying. I am now a better Christian and mom through Jeannette’s teaching and will be forever grateful.

Much love,

Wanda J Dangel

This is Patti Canoy-Barrett. I had a house off of Marshall Street so Jeannette we were neighbors. I remember after she was diagnosed I would go over there and I would fill empty clear medicine capsules and we make piles of them which is easier for me to fill them. I have many memories. I remember when she adopted Mark and she told me stories of Her choices at the time Mark I’m so proud of you, you really grew into a great young man sorry I won’t be able to make it down. You both have a place in my heart cheers Patti Poulsbo Washington Mark if you’re ever in this area, I’ll leave the guest cottage light on for you. Cheers.

I had the honor of meeting Jeannette when I started working in MPU at St. Vincent in 2004 as an Endo Tech. Jeannette was the most welcoming and kindest person I encountered. She was most gracious in offering to help with my young son at the time by having him spend a day during the week with her and Mark at her home while I was at work. This was such a help to me. Jeannette was a true friend in every sense. Jeannette was an amazing nurse who took exceptional care of her patients. She TRULY cared! She had an amazing sense of humor, strong loyalty to friends and family and most of all loved her family. Just a good, good person to her core.
