cer Washatko, Natalia Theisen, and Aurora Tryba. Jeanette took special delight in spoiling her grand-dogs, Cash and Bella. She is famously known for her made with lots of love chocolate chip cookies. "Grandma's Basement" was also fondly known as a safe hang out for her grandchildren and many of their friends. Jeanette worked at Wausau Insurance, as a homemaker, at the Antigo Daily Journal and Eastview Medical Rehab Center before deciding to further her education. She did this as her children were also entering college. Jeanette became a nurse, graduating from Northcentral Technical College in 1994. While she worked briefly at Eastview as a nurse, her heart was really in the nursing of those who truly needed her love and strong faith as they were leaving this life to a better one. She volunteered for LeRoyer Hospice for 2 years before being brought on to work with the Sisters for another 19 years. During this time, she provided comfort and support to over 650 families during their most difficult times. Her life was a living example of her favorite Bible verse, "Love one another as I have loved you." (John 15:12). She was a member of St. John's Catholic Church and lovingly gave of her time in many ways through the charismatic prayer group and scripture prayer group as well as the Adoration Chapel. Her love of life and servant leadership called her to action through Antigo's Right to Life chapter for more than 25 years. Jeanette is survived by her brothers, Jerry (Kim) Smith and Jim Smith (Lisa Hoekstra); and her sister Judy (Cliff) Knudsen. She is further survived by her brothers-in-law, John (Carla) Theisen, Mike (Sandy) Theisen, Dave (Julie) Theisen and sisters-in-law, Loretta Schmidt, Anne (Siggy) Schonfelder, Georgianna DeHart, and Bernice Smith as well as her many nieces and nephews. All of whom she loved and touched deeply. In addition to her parents, husband and son, she was proceeded in death by her father-in-law, Bud Theisen; mother-in-law, Mary Theisen; brother-in-law, Earl Theisen; and sister-in-law, Mary Theisen. Many of her last evenings were spent reminiscing and singing with her loving brother and sister, Jerry and Judy, with her loving family and friends by her side.
