I had the good fortune to meet and work with Jeannette in her role with Strategic Financial Partners. She truly lit up the room with her dark dancing eyes, infectious smile and funny stories. We laughed, shopped, ate meals together and as mentioned in her obituary, she opened her home to me when I was in town. Jeannette loved her family spoke of them often.... especially granddaughter Sam, the light of her life. I am forever changed by knowing Jeannette. She as one awesome woman. So sorry for your loss...
