Dear Ikey and family,                                                                                                                                    So sorry to hear of Jeanne’s passing. She certainly lived life to the fullest, was always full of energy and was one of the most caring persons I ever met. So many great memories of growing up close to each other with the Eichelbergers on Hazel St. and the Fields on Hillside Ave. Many great times with Bill and Penny and Jeanne always seemed to be making lunch for us, driving us somewhere or just being there for all of us. Carol and I so much wanted to attend Jeanne’s service tomorrow but I could not get off work. All of you will be in our thoughts and prayers as I’m sure Jeanne’s service will be a beautiful celebration of a great person and a Life well lived.    Love, Sam and Carol Field
