Dear Mr. & Mrs. Hanks, Mark & Dianne, Jeannie and I graduated together. I was priviledged to be her nurse on one of her admits. Many prayers went up on yours and Jeannie's behalf. I prayed for a miracle and we got one. Jeannie got to stay with us for 4 yrs., and she miraculously went home to her heavenly home since a cure was not to be here. She is cured forever, praise be to God. I'm continuing to pray for you all. I just found this site. I was thinking of Jeannie when I found it.

I just found out about Jeannie's passing. I want to give her family my heartfelt condolences. I went to school (Middle) with Jeannie at Woodville. We were pretty good friends for a while. We had not been in touch for quite some time. Still I was very saddened by the news of her death. I also did not know that she had lost so many other close family members as well. I have a lot of good memories of Jeannie and our fun times together as teenagers. Please know that we are thinking of you at this very difficult time in your families lives.

We are sure going to miss Jeannie. We were expecting a miracle because everyone was praying so hard. I know that she is in a better place now, with no more suffering. Please let us know if there is anything that we can do. We love y'all.
