Jeanne S. Bell was an amazing woman. She loved with her whole heart and poured her life into her family. She is a daughter of the king and was called before the foundations of the earth. God knew she would be the powerful praying kind of wife, mother and Nana her family would need. She was our biggest cheerleader for all our endeavors. She now dances on the streets of gold with her savior and king. She is healthy, whole, and healed living life now more fully then before.
