Remembering all the good times we had during holidays at both the Bridge Road and Queensbridge houses. And the Brekke's vacations. We will miss you, Aunt Jeanne!

I always enjoyed seeing Jeanne's smiling face in the Maywood School office when visiting my kids in their classrooms. I will remember her as a kind and delightful lady who laughed easily. My condolences to her family.

She was my moms best friend. My mom talked about her all the time. I remember going to the Culp house on Queensbridge with my mom when we were young. They laughed so much together. Jeanne was there to console us when my mom died. It is reassuring to know that they have each other again in heaven. Lots of love and prayers to the Culp family.

I have fond memories of Jeanne from my time as a teacher in MG. My visits to Maywood were always buoyed by Jeanne's smile and positive attitude. She was a welcoming presence for all and a supportive colleague. Sincere condolences.

Dear Jack and family, Jeanne was an important influence in my life and career. I worked with her in the MG High School Guidance office for many years. Her many talents for organization, her humor, and, especially, her willingness to put up with me are things that meant so much. Jeanne's gifts were many. She was truly a special lady and her passing will leave us all with a sense of loss. You all will be in my prayers as you celebrate the life of a wonderful person... I wish I could be with you all as you celebrate Jeanne's life, but we are in the south until April. David Rohde
