She had a zest for life and enjoyed energetic activities including swimming, skiing, sailing, and playing the flute in her younger years. In her retirement years, Jeanne and Jeff traveled between Florida and Maine in an RV. Jeanne had the kindest heart and was always willing to lend a helping hand to close friends in need.
