"We are sad to know that Jeanette has now gone to her heavenly home. We actually learned when we were still in AZ. Russ called to let us know. We have so many great memories of the Winkleblack family! The year in Rolfe when the electricity was out for several days. We spent many days staying warm and eating Happy with all of you because you had a fire place. The weeks at Vacation Village. Fourth of July celebrations with Wilsons, Bob Pedersens, Gary Smiths, Shimons and the Winkleblacks. The boys moving our yard. Plus many more great memories, too many to mention. Love and caring to all of Jeanette?s family and friends. Fred and Margaret McKim "

"Chuck , Deb and the Winkleblack clan, sorry to hear about Jeanette. I don?t have to tell you how lucky you were to have her for a mom. I don?t ever remember her without a smile on her face and always so positive about everything. She always treated all Chuck?s knucklehead friends as family, which we certainly didn?t deserve. The world could certainly use a whole lot more Jeanette Winkleblack?s. "

"Sympathy to all of Jeanette?s family. Growing up in Rolfe and friends with Jeanell I have many great memories of her Mom.....Jeanette often had crafts and activities for us to do and in the morning I remember peanut butter banana boats. I remember walking a dog and getting tripped up in the lease and falling and cutting open my eye. Jeannette did a great butterfly bandage! She always had a welcoming smile and positive nurturing way.
