I am so, so sorry for your loss. Every time we would run into each other she would make a point of saying Hi and of course a big hug. We need more cheerful people like her.
No words can express how sorry we are for your great loss. Someone so special can never be forgotten. Jeanne was the heart of SummerPlace Lane and it won’t be the same without her. Please accept our deepest condolences.

I was very blessed to know Jean – her caring and gentle manner drew me to her as a friend. Her hugs would make my day. She could always make me laugh when I was down. She will be missed.
I am so sorry to hear about Jean. We spent many years together in District #2 as the Republican Election Inspectors. I always looked forward to the day because not only did Jean do her job well but her laughter brightened our day. My condolences and prayers to the family. Your have great memories to help you in the times to come.
Jean was an amazing person. She was and will be forever “the hug lady” to so many.
Oh no.
Jean will always be in my heart as a true freind. Her family is in my heart and prayers.
I knew Jean way back in the days of Charlie’s Chicken Coop
As a Boy Scout leader, I have to say on behalf of Troop 58, Honeoye, Jean was our favorite for sure!
She would hang out on shore as we put in their dock, their hosts and the neighbors too. And then the best part, we would all jump into the lake one more time, just to line up and one by one, she would give each one of us a huge hug. She would be soaked.
We dubbed Jean , ” The hug Lady” and each one of us loved her!
God has called home a very much deserved Angle.
We love You Jean!
