Jeanne attended Saint Josephs School in Salem and was employed by Sylvania, Varian, Travel Time and the Salem News. She was a proud member of the Sylvania Entertainment Association where her exquisite fashion sense shined at the formal dance events.

Jeanne loved time spent at Salem Willows with family and friends.

She had many hobbies, including candle making, playing her guitar and singing and making wooden doll chairs. She was a spiritual woman who found comfort through meditation. She also had an adventurous side as a young woman and would spontaneously jump on her motorcycle and ride off alone to the White Lakes. Heartfelt appreciation is extended to all the staff at the Pilgrim Rehabilitation Center and Compassionate Care Hospice for the quality of care and love they provided for Jeanne and her family. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.

Per Jeanne's wishes a celebration of her life was held at The Salem Willows Pavilion for family and friends to attend in July.
