Jeanne was all about family. She looked forward to the holidays and the weekly meal get-togethers. She enjoyed knitting dishcloths as give away presents to all her family. Around the holidays and birthdays, she would make some rock candy, cheesecake or fudge and ship them off as care packages to her grandchildren that needed a hug from long distance. Christmas time was especially memorable for the famous Christmas cookie operation. Everyone pitched in and everyone left with a tray loaded with cookies. For her personal enjoyment she loved reading romance novels and on Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy nights, she was locked in.
Jeanne was a lifetime member of Andover Firemen's Auxiliary where she held about every position available over the years and she was Past President of Southwestern Association of Volunteer Firemen.
