Jeanette was a loving wife, mother and kind neighbor. She was a faithful and sincere member of St. George Catholic Church. Jeanette spent her entire life in this community. Often you would see her in her yard tending to her flowers at 1204 Washington Street, or dancing with the Wurstjaegers during Festivals. She started to dance with the group at age 17.  In 1949 she danced on the stage of Keil Auditorium.

Sewing, knitting, crocheting and quitling gave her an opportunity to gift many family members and friends.

Jeanette had many jobs. First being a clerk at Theissen & Co. in Rhineland while her brothers went of to war. Jeanette "checker" worked at Kroger, Loutre Market, Duffner-Corbett, Gasconade County Counseling Center, Gasconade County Health Dept. In the 60's she flipped burgers at Jesse Wright's Cafe'.

Jeanette Loved to travel, she graced the Holy Lands, Hawaii, England and took a few cruises.

She was a member of the Ladies Sodality, St. Elizabeth Sewing Circle, St. George Choir (which she admitted to humming a lot), KC Auxiliary, Red Hat Club, VFW Auxiliary, Rhineland Wurstjaegers and Rhineland Roots Dinner Club (that good Rhineland stock).

She treasured the time spent with her friend Geneva Kemper adorning the alters at St. George Church.
