Jeanette was born on January 14, 1936. She grew up in Merigold, MS.

Following her work with Senator Eastland, she served as the chief financial administrator for the Bankruptcy Court in Jackson, MS.
Jeanette retired in her late 50's but did not stop working. She served faithfully as a volunteer in the pastoral office at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, MS, for several years before fully retiring.
The family asks that any remembrances be given in her honor to St. Catherine's Village, in Madison, MS, where she spent the last six to seven months of her life. The care provided to her by the staff of St. Catherine's was exemplary, as it was for her beloved father who spent the last years of his life at St. Catherine's.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be 11am Sat July 3, 2010 at the Cathedral of St. Peter the Apostle in Jackson preced by visiation at 10am. Burial will follow in Lakewood Memorial Park.
