I use to see her every morning when she came to the office. We talked at least once a week. She was such a kind person. I am going to miss this wonderful lady .

Our paths crossed in a number of ways and I am grateful. It was a special joy to work with Jeanne on two projects and both at completion brought satisfaction and smiles.

How we all admired Jeanne, a wonderful and gracious lady. She encouraged all around her. We will always remember her spirit of generosity, her kindness, her wisdom, and her marvelous dry sense of humor.
