Jeanne held several bookkeeping positions over the years and retired from Mosaic in 2015 after 23 years of service.

Jeanne was a member of St. Patrick Catholic Church. She and Jim enjoyed camping. Their love for camping extended to the entire family. Jeanne’s life revolved around her children and grandchildren. As long as her health permitted, she delighted in attending all of their activities. Jeanne loved giving and receiving flowers. She was delighted when her family, on each Mother’s Day, planted flowers all around her house. Family traditions were very important to Jeanne such as: annual camping trips to Willow Lake, Christmas tree hunting, and Halloween gatherings.
