Janet Troxell
Thank you, Aunt Jeanne for being a wonderful example to me as a great mother and a wonderful nurse. You inspired me as a young girl which led to my 46 proud years as a nurse. I will never forget our family gatherings at Meadow-brook for our family reunions in July. You were so frank and funny! You always seemed to know what to do when someone got hurt. I loved being around you. You were so open and spoke your mind. You said the funniest things and we loved taping your conversations under the tables in secret. You and Bob always seemed happy and together on things.
I am thankful that Mom and I were able to come see you at your home before Mom got too ill to
Get out. We had a lovely last time together.
I was able to visit Uncle Bob before he moved his residence to heaven! Now… we are happy to know that you two are back together. I look forward to our grand reunion in Heaven one day, again!
I love you and thank you, Aunt Jeanne!

Such fond memories visiting Aunt Jeannie and Uncle Bob’s house in our younger years. The back yard, the patio, the creek at the bottom of the hill, the Golden Retrievers, and Aunt Jeannie’s projecting voice that I can still hear in my head today. The video memorial video had me holding back tears. It also reminded me of how much time has passed and how much I miss everyone.
Cheri, Ann and Chris you had awesome parents. My sincere condolences.
