I am sorry to hear about the loss of Jeanette. My prayers are with you. Jeanette and I attended Bible College together. I just found out today, Friday, January 22nd...I would have been there - had I known. She was a true woman of God and we shared many conversations together. I am at peace knowing that she died in the Lord. On the days when your hearts are heavy, just remember that the issues of life and death belong to God and there is nothing too hard for Him to solve. Cast your cares on Him!

At His Feet,

To the Legare & Alston Family,
I met Jeanette over twenty years ago when my aunt Doris married her brother Pookie. I was really shocked to learn of her passing. Family, just hold onto God's unchanging hands and he will direct your path. To the husband and children I have never met you but always remember the love that was given and all the little things that she did for you because it's the little things that we remember most and most of all the love that was shared. Family be blessed.

Ms. Jeanette will always be remembered for her sweet, caring and loving personality. It has been such a blessing for her being a special part in my life. In the short time that I knew her, I realized that there are special people who God has placed in our lives in order to be a blessing to us. She will always be remembered and her legacy will live on. You will always be in my heart Ms. Jeanette.

My heart and prayers go out to the family of Jeanette. She was a great woman who I enjoyed working with for 13yrs at RM Engineered. Fellows workers used to kid us and tell us we sounded like Brother and Sister because of the way we use to pick on each other and joke around. She made coming to work everyday enjoyable and you will be missed Jeanette.

I have only know Jeanette, since September, but I found her to be faithful child of God. I have placed a link to song called 'There is a Hello, After goodbye". This really tells it just the way it is. Ms. Jeanette is in the presence of the Lord, what a blessed hope.

Mr. Melvin, Tiffany, Crystal, and David
In your time of sorrow
Know that God is there

And wipe away your tears

Just give to Him your broken heart
For He in time will heal.

Sleep on my friend I will miss you... May God keep your family in perfect peace.
