Jeanette was one of my dearest friends for years. We met when she worked at the Ft. Carson Army & Air Force Exchange System. I was in college working as a store detective at the PX and had many stressors in my life. Jeanette was always there for me as I struggled to work full time and go to school full time. She helped me to maintain sanity for the years we worked together. I always thought Jeanette was one of the best people on earth; I never forgot her after my life changed course and we no longer worked together. I would see her intermittently over the years because her mother lived down the street from me. I was always happy to have encountered my friend and we could catch up on each other's lives. I was crushed at her passing and will never forget her.

Jeanette, you were one of the greatest souls to ever exist. Jeanette got the meaning of, "being," and lived her life to the fullest. Jeanette left her mark on the world with the people who loved her and always will.

Jeanette, I had the pleasure of your company on only a few occasions, but it was clear to me how important family was to you. I had hoped we would get to know each other better this year, but alas, that was not meant to be. Blessings.

I worked with Jeanette at Frontier. I always enjoyed her cheery face and her subtle, funny, dry sense of humor. I was shocked and saddened, as many of us were. My heart goes to her family. We at Frontier mourn her loss.
